Everything Takes Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hey, little girl, what are you up to? Put back that red lipstick, put away that red dress You might think it's alright, but no, not tonight Don't you know that it's not time [Pre-Chorus] You gotta wait a little longer Gotta get a little older Don't rush the things that'll change [Chorus] 'Cause everything takes time As every song needs a rhyme And I know, you want it now But you'll get there somehow Just let it all unfold, tomorrow can't be told Take it slow and you'll get more in time [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-whoa, whoa Ooh-oh-whoa, oh [Verse 2] Hey, little girl, what are you up to? Tryna do the things that grown ups do You know you're not ready, you're making a mistake Patience is a virtue And things have a rightful place [Pre-Chorus] You gotta wait a little longer Gotta get a little older Don't rush the things that'll change [Chorus] 'Cause everything takes time As every song needs a rhyme And I know, you want it now But you'll get there somehow Just let it all unfold, tomorrow can't be told Take it slow and you'll get more in time [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-whoa, whoa Ooh-oh-whoa, oh [Bridge] There are times when it feels like it's now or never There are times when it feels like it's gone forever But don't you worry there's tomorrow There's tomorrow [Chorus] 'Cause everything takes time As every song needs a rhyme And I know, you want it now But you'll get there somehow Just let it all unfold, tomorrow can't be told Take it slow and you'll get more in time 'Cause everything takes time As every song needs a rhyme And I know, you want it now But you'll get there somehow Just let it all unfold, tomorrow can't be told Take it slow and you'll get more in time [Outro] Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-whoa, whoa Ooh-oh-whoa, oh, yes
