The Time It Takes Songtext
Middle of midnight, waiting for noon
Swimming in lies, reaching for the truth
Whatever it is that you are going through
I'll be right there next to you
Oh, you know the sun will show its face
Oh, there's a rhythm to the waves
It just takes the time it takes
You're gonna fall, so teach yourself to laugh
When you turn wrong, just turn right back
Swimming in lies, reaching for the truth
Whatever it is that you are going through
I'll be right there next to you
Oh, you know the sun will show its face
Oh, there's a rhythm to the waves
It just takes the time it takes
You're gonna fall, so teach yourself to laugh
When you turn wrong, just turn right back
Set your pace, but don't you go too fast
You know they say the first will be last
Oh, you're gonna learn from your mistakes
Oh, slow and steady wins the race
It just takes the time it takes
Everything, everything
By and by
Everything, everything
Try and try
Oh, like gravity and grace
It just takes the time it takes
Saints turn sinners and turn right back again
This beautiful old world we're in
It's broken, but it just keeps on spinning
To where we're goin' from where we've been
Oh, you know hope will conquer hate
Oh, and love will bind up any break
It just takes the time it takes
Everything, everything
By and by
Everything, everything
Try and try
Oh, but like gravity and grace
Oh, just like falling into place
Oh, you know something's gotta change
It just takes the time it takes
Mm-mm
You know they say the first will be last
Oh, you're gonna learn from your mistakes
Oh, slow and steady wins the race
It just takes the time it takes
Everything, everything
By and by
Everything, everything
Try and try
Oh, like gravity and grace
It just takes the time it takes
Saints turn sinners and turn right back again
This beautiful old world we're in
It's broken, but it just keeps on spinning
To where we're goin' from where we've been
Oh, you know hope will conquer hate
Oh, and love will bind up any break
It just takes the time it takes
Everything, everything
By and by
Everything, everything
Try and try
Oh, but like gravity and grace
Oh, just like falling into place
Oh, you know something's gotta change
It just takes the time it takes
Mm-mm
