Album: Sunset Over Hope Street (2011)

Give It Time

If it wasn't for closing the window
You wouldn't have heard the call
And without so much as a hello
You wouldn't have known me at all

If it wasn't for letting your guard down
You wouldn't have opened me up
We'd be sitting across from each other
Wondering when will enough be enough

Give it time, give it time
You're gonna find, you're gonna find
That its only in your mind

If it wasn't for changing the channel
You wouldn't have seen the ad
You'd have fallen asleep on the sofa
Never putting the pen to the pad

And in the morning I'd be gone
Separately we'd carry on

So don't be thinking too hard bout tomorrow
Cause we don't know what's coming along

Give it time, give it time
You're gonna find, you're gonna find
That it's only in your mind
So can we give this thing a try?

If it wasn't for luck in the first place
You'd never have shaken my hand
We'd be moving around at a snail's pace
Making and breaking plans

I woulda never known your name
Woulda gone back from where I came

So don't you worry about tomorrow
Cause we still got a lot of today
Yeah don't you worry about tomorrow
Cause we still got a lot more today

Give it time, give it time
You're gonna find, you're gonna find
That its only in your mind
In your mind
You're gonna find, you're gonna find
That its only in your mind
So can we give this thing a try?
