When you wake up

Turn the radio on

And you'll hear this simple song

That I made up

That I made up for you

When you're driving

Turn your radio up

Cause I can't sing loud enough

Hard these days

To get my message through

If time is all I have

I'll waste it all on you

Each day I'll turn it back

It's what the broken-hearted do

I'm tired of talking to an empty space

Of silences keeping me awake

When you marry

And you look around

I'll be somewhere in that crowd

Torn up, that it isn't me

When we're older

And the memories fade

But I know I'll still feel the same

For as long as I live

But if time is all I have

I'll waste it all on you

Each day I'll turn it back

It's what the broken-hearted do

I'm tired of talking to an empty space

Of silences keeping me awake

Won't you say my name, one time

Please just say my name

But if time is all I have

I'll waste it all on you

Each day I'll turn it back

It's what the broken-hearted do

I'm tired of talking to an empty space

Of silences keeping me awake

If time is all I have

I'll waste it all on you

Each day I'll turn it back

It's what the broken-hearted do

I'm tired of talking to an empty space

Of silences keeping me awake

Won't you say my name, one time

When the song is over

‘If Time is All I have’ merupakan salahsatu lagu dari album terbarunya, Some Kind of Trouble. Dalam lagu ini kita akan dibawa teringat kembali dengan ‘Goodbye My Lover’ yang sorrow dan gloomy, tapi bedanya, lagu ini lebih mempunyai passion. Dari liriknya, lagu ini menceritakan seseorang yang meskipun dia broken heart, tetapi perasaannya tidak akan berubah. Tetapi jika dilihat dari videoklipnya, terlihat Blunt bersama seorang perempuan sedang memandangi kecelakaan mobil yang terjadi di depannya, dan korban dari kecelakaan itu sebenarnya adalah mereka sendiri.

Videoklip ini pertama kali di launching pada pertengahan Maret 2011, dan dalam hitungan hari 120.000 ribu orang telah mengaksesnya dari Youtube. Sama seperti lagu-lagunya yang lain, Blunt berhasil merebut perhatian pendengarnya dengan lirik lagunya yang meaningful.
