Take your time
This one's a bit like I'm Gonna Stay With Her in that I thought of the first bit years ago and finished it years later. I got the first two lines and the tune in my head when I was walking round Broad Street in Birmingham at about six or seven pm, killing time between post-work pub and a work Christmas do. It was about 2001 probably. And then I thought of the rest in 2006 when I was walking round Sheffield city centre one morning waiting for the bank to open.
It's a bit like a hymn really, don't you reckon?
How sweet it is
to take your time
How sweet it is
to take your time
Cos when the world turns quickly
then you might forget
how sweet it is
to take your time.
I went to town
the other day
I took my time
and found my way
Cos if you play the games they want you to
you'll never find the time
it takes to find
the winning line
And when the world turns quickly
then you might forget
how sweet it is
to take your time. |
