Takes a Little Time

It takes a little time sometimes To get your feet back on the ground It takes a little time sometimes To get the Titanic turned back around It takes a little sometimes But baby, you're not going down It takes more than you got right now Give it, give it time What's this walking through my door I know I've seen the look before Sometimes on faces in the street And sometimes in the mirror, looking back at me You can't fix this pain with money You can't rush a weary soul You can't sweep it under the rug, now, honey It don't take a lot to know It takes a little time sometimes To get your feet back on the ground It takes a little time, sometimes To get the Titanic turned back around It takes a little sometimes But baby, you're not going down It takes more than you got right now Give it, give it time Yeah, give it time But it may not be over by morning Rome wasn't built in a day You can name that thing a thousand times And it won't make it go away Let me put my arms around you And hold you while weep We've been talking, and you know what, I'm sick of this talk It's nothing that won't keep It takes a little time, sometimes To get your feet back, on the ground It takes a little time, sometimes To turn the Titanic around It takes a little sometimes But baby, you're not going down It takes more than you got right now Give it, give it time It takes a little more time, more time (Turn the Titanic around) Turn it around, around, around (Baby, you're not going down) Takes a little time sometime You can't fix this pain with money You can't rush a weary soul You can't sweep it under the rug, now, honey It don't take a lot to know It takes a little time, sometimes To get your feet back, on the ground It takes a little time, sometimes To turn the Titanic around It takes a little sometimes But baby, you're not going down You got things to think of now So give it, give it time Give it, give it time
