Take The Time
Jeff Larson
8/19/02


Always late
Always distracted
I can't concentrate
Cause my mind's infected

Can't stop thinking, bout a dream that I once had
Can't think about nothin, but a soft and warm place
Well I don't know, just how to get back there
Wish I could find a sage, to lead the way

Take the time, stay with me
If you don't mind, it would be so kind
Take the time, get to know my mind
You just might find, you'll see something
and maybe, find a reason.....

Can't stop time
We're always, growing older
Past your prime
Gotta quit, lookin over your shoulder

I can't believe, the mess that's been left behind
By the bad one, talk about my past self
I gotta be takin care, of goody two shoes
Talkin 'bout, you know, my future self

Well I admit, I'm a little off kilter
My mind keeps jumpin through time and time and I can't prove it
I feel the same way, I did at fourteen
But now is when I realize it's always new

Take the time, stay with me
If you don't mind, it would be so kind
Take the time, get to know your mind
You just might find, you'll learn some things

and maybe...

Take the time, stay with me
If you don't mind, it would be so kind
Take the time, get to know my mind
You just might find, you'll see something

and maybe...
