Lyrics Take Its Own Time - Karine Polwart

Take Its Own Time

You ceased to mow the lawn ten years ago
You just wanted to see how your garden would grow
You abandoned the pruning shears and welcomed each weed
You permitted the soil to select its own seed
But it would be unfair to assume you donЂ™t care
For you pay great attention to all that goes there
You simply abstain from a plan or design
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
And you follow a thread in a book that youЂ™ve read
Or in something that someone you heard somewhere said
You say ЂњItЂ™s all connected, itЂ™s all intertwined
If you let it all hang out and take its own time
If you let it all hang out and take its own timeЂќ
Now you donЂ™t move too fast, you make it all last
You encounter a moment before it is past
And you say ЂњWalking slow in this world is no crimeЂќ
You just let it all hang out and take its own time
You just let it all hang out and take its own time Ђ¦
