Lyrics

TAKE YOUR TIME copyright 2006
It might have been the happiest day of my life
I was dreaming of the day you’d make me your wife
But when the months of waiting turned into years
The writing on the wall became crystal clear
Go ahead and take your time
Just don’t take any of mine
Go ahead and take your time
As long as it ain’t mine.
I think you’ve had enough of mine.
I told myself I’d give you ‘til next Spring
For you to seal the deal with a diamond ring
The word got back that you were messin’ around
With just about every girl in this whole town
Go ahead and take your time…
They say there’s a lot of fish in the sea
Finding the right one is like winning the lottery
You were a losing ticket, now, ain’t it a shame
We shared a fiery passion ‘til you put out the flame
Go ahead and take your time
Just don’t take any of mine
Go ahead and take your time
As long as it ain’t mine.
You’re all done wasting mine.
