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 time sometimes, but baby, you're not goin’ down
It takes more than you got right now - give it, give it time

What's this walkin' through my door? I know I’ve seen the look before
Sometimes in faces on the street, 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 time sometimes, but baby, you're not goin' down
It takes more than you got right now - give it, give it time

Well, it may not be over by morning, but 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 you weep
We’ve been talkin' and you know what, I’m sick of this talk
And it's nothin' 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 get the Titanic turned back around
It takes a little time sometimes, but baby, you’re not goin' down
It takes more than you got right now - give it, give it time
There's nothing wrong, take a little bit longer
Give yourself a little more time
Oh, it takes time my friend
Give yourself a little more time
Give yourself time, my friend
Give yourself a little more time
All it takes is a little time
Give yourself a little time
