Lyrics It Takes Time - Gabrielle

It Takes Time

I’ve seen you change
I know that you were
Going through a phase
I’m feeling
Less guarded now
That I’ve got you figured out
We all make mistakes
Doesn’t mean that
You should run away
You’ve got to
Fight it out
Coz that’s what life’s about
There’s so much that should be said
But I’m careful how I tread with you
But I know in my heart
It’s who you were
Not who you are
You can’t go back
To right your wrongs
You can’t hold on all life long
Take the time to do what’s right
You’ll prove them wrong given time
Don’t look back
You move on
I know right now that you’re not strong
It takes time
You’ve come a long way
I can see by your face
That you’re still afraid
But I’ll be there
I’ll be around
When lite has got you down
There’s so much that should be said
But I’m careful how I tread with you
But l know in any heart
It’s who you were
Not who you are
You can’t go back
To right your wrongs
You can’t hold on all life long
Take the time to do what’s right
You’ll prove them wrong given time
Don’t look back
You move on
I know right now that you’re not strong
It takes time
There’s so much that should be said
But I won’t, oh
Coz I don’t think you’re ready yet, no
But l know in any heart
It’s who you were
Not who you are
You can’t go back
To right your wrongs
You can’t hold on all life long
Take the time to do what’s right
You’ll prove them wrong given time
Don’t look back
You move on
I know right now that you’re not strong
It takes time
