Give It Time
Give me time to think it over
I'm not ready to begin
I just need a little space to clear my head
We were dogs caught in a fury
Thirsty for each other's blood
I just don't know if it's safe
To be standing face to face
'Til we're both ready to change and walk as one
Oh, dear friend
How did we come to this?
Who are we
If we can't set aside our differences?
It ain't 'forgiveness and not forgotten'
Always hung above our heads
Are we willing to erase
The scroll of wrongs?
How are we to be united
When our hands are always sinning?
We can wash away the filth
Stand hand in hand as friends
It's the rules we have to bend
To walk together
Oh, dear friend
How did we come to this?
Who are we
If we can't set aside our differences?
Time can be our sweet companion
But it won't resolve dispute
We are bound to follow footsteps of our fathers
It ain't easy to be honest
But it's what we gotta do
We have both ourselves to blame
So let's talk about your pain
You can hear about my pain
We can say each other's names without resentment
Oh, dear friend
How did we come to this?
Who are we
If we can't set aside our differences?
Oh, dear friend
It doesn't always have to be like this
Who we are
Is more than the sum of all our differences
I'm not ready to begin
I just need a little space to clear my head
We were dogs caught in a fury
Thirsty for each other's blood
I just don't know if it's safe
To be standing face to face
'Til we're both ready to change and walk as one
Oh, dear friend
How did we come to this?
Who are we
If we can't set aside our differences?
It ain't 'forgiveness and not forgotten'
Always hung above our heads
Are we willing to erase
The scroll of wrongs?
How are we to be united
When our hands are always sinning?
We can wash away the filth
Stand hand in hand as friends
It's the rules we have to bend
To walk together
Oh, dear friend
How did we come to this?
Who are we
If we can't set aside our differences?
Time can be our sweet companion
But it won't resolve dispute
We are bound to follow footsteps of our fathers
It ain't easy to be honest
But it's what we gotta do
We have both ourselves to blame
So let's talk about your pain
You can hear about my pain
We can say each other's names without resentment
Oh, dear friend
How did we come to this?
Who are we
If we can't set aside our differences?
Oh, dear friend
It doesn't always have to be like this
Who we are
Is more than the sum of all our differences
