Space Not Outer space

I drove a wedge between us Silly me for trying so hard As the clock ticks The minutes go by It feels like eternity That i haven't reached out Space you have requested I need to respect The little lamb Who's fleece was white as snow Couldn’t follow her owner Space is a hard word to swallow Like a pill I pressured you Like the low tire light We say hello As we walk by Like the chirp Of a cardinal Sitting high In the tree You need space But not The outer space I need to Move along Like the Big locomotive On the tracks I will Give you Space my dear But not The Outer Space Mary's little lamb eh
