Give It Time
There's a footprint that you're leaving on the sands of time today
And I hope the tide that washes clean don't take it all away
There's an imprint that you're leaving on this place we call the Earth
And I hope the life you live each day is really all you're worth
Give it time, give it everything you've got
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
Once you've made it, you will know
So, give it time
If your life is happy now, then, you can make it better still
If you think you're just surviving, seek the way, you'll find the will
Do the things you have to do to get to where you have to go
If you plant a seed of truth and love, a tree of life will grow
Give it time, give it everything you've got
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
Once you've made it, you will know
So, give it time
Why be one of the crowd?
You could be so much more
Why not shout it out loud?
You can open the door
'Cause there's a footprint that you're leaving on the sands of time today
And I hope the tide that washes clean don't take it all away
There's an imprint that you're leaving on this place we call the earth
And I hope the life you live each day is really all you're worth
Give it time, give it everything you've got
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
When you've made it, you're gonna know
So, give it time
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Hey-hey, hmm-mm
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
When you've made it, you're gonna know
So, give it time
Give it, give it, give it time
Give it time, give it every thing you've got
Hmm, you better not have a lock-up
Give it time, give it time
And I hope the tide that washes clean don't take it all away
There's an imprint that you're leaving on this place we call the Earth
And I hope the life you live each day is really all you're worth
Give it time, give it everything you've got
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
Once you've made it, you will know
So, give it time
If your life is happy now, then, you can make it better still
If you think you're just surviving, seek the way, you'll find the will
Do the things you have to do to get to where you have to go
If you plant a seed of truth and love, a tree of life will grow
Give it time, give it everything you've got
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
Once you've made it, you will know
So, give it time
Why be one of the crowd?
You could be so much more
Why not shout it out loud?
You can open the door
'Cause there's a footprint that you're leaving on the sands of time today
And I hope the tide that washes clean don't take it all away
There's an imprint that you're leaving on this place we call the earth
And I hope the life you live each day is really all you're worth
Give it time, give it everything you've got
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
When you've made it, you're gonna know
So, give it time
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Hey-hey, hmm-mm
Though, you may not have a lot, just give it time
Give it time, give yourself a chance to grow
When you've made it, you're gonna know
So, give it time
Give it, give it, give it time
Give it time, give it every thing you've got
Hmm, you better not have a lock-up
Give it time, give it time
