Takes Time

Feeling lonely at my keys
Trying to write anything to make myself feel free
Working through my thoughts till dawn
Who knew that the night could ever feel this damn long

Bass, keys, horn, and guitar
All try to comfort me

It takes time to find the perfect word or line
'Cause though E flat's not in the key
It starts to sound alright to me

It takes time, since melodies can be so shy
But once you get them off their feet
Your soul will dance right to the beat

Who said writing would be fun?
After all it is a job that's meant for only one
But that time when it all sits
Right where it is meant to be, right in the pocket

Bass, keys, horn, and guitar
All start to sing along

It takes time to find the perfect word or line
'Cause though E flat's not in the key
It starts to sound alright to me

It takes time, since melodies can be so shy
But once you get them off their feet
Your soul will dance right to the beat

Takes time
Word or line

And since you can't comfort me
I guess I will just have to sing

Takes time
Word or line

And since you can't comfort me
I guess I will just have to sing
