[Verse 1]
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You love her so and still you know
That you will never want to let her go
Unless you leave her first
Then you come out on top
But still there's just one thing
You haven't got

[Chorus]
Peace of mind
Like when you treated her kind
It's hard to face that open space

[Verse 2]
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
When first you gave and shared your soul
Showed her all those things that take their toll
She knows your weak spot
But she still gets you hot
And so you do it again
Reveal what lies within

[Chorus]
And go for peace of mind
Like when you treated her kind
It's hard to face that open space
[Bridge]
You're looking for peace of mind
Anywhere you can find
Still searching for peace of mind

[Outro]
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
