Lyrics Takin' the Time - Howard Jones

Takin' the Time

Youre working overtime
You know it doesnt do you no good
Youre slaving away for things that you need
Roof is falling down on round your head
Youre backed against the wall
Living your whole damn life
At someone elses beck and call
On the edge of the
Aaaaahhhh, come on Come in, youre bruised and battered
You need some time to heal
Step out of the bullet train
Set yourself down, I know how you feel
Slow down your racing pulses
Overthrow all your of fears
For an hour, be a simple man
And Ill be a good set of ears
Aaaaahhhh, come on Takin the time to look
Takin the time to feel
you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
Takin the time to look
Takin the time to feel
you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
Youre movin heaven and earth
And straining every nerve
Always working double time
Burn the midnight oil down to the last
You cant go your anymore
Wind your smoked glass windows down
If you cant handle opening the door
Aaaaaahhhh, come on Takin the time to look
Takin the time to feel
you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
Takin the time to look
Takin the time to feel
you rewrite your open book
Allow the scars to heal
