Song Description

Take The Time is about how important it is to express your love to those closest to you, because you never know when they might be gone.

Lyrics

My neighbor works the 9 to 5
At 7 AM with a kiss goodbye he leaves his wife at home
All this time they spend apart puts a strain on someone?s heart
She don?t need to live her life alone
As he?s doing all he can to live up to his master plan
A faster car, perhaps a speedy boat
There?s a distance they can feel some might see it, yes it?s real
As the words I love you get stuck in his throat

Minutes hours days and years
Before you know it time just disappears
Take the time to love someone
The time to hold them in your arms
The time to let?em know what?s going on
Take the time to hold them close to you
And the time to let your love shine through
Turn to the ones you love right now today
Before your time can slip away

A friend of mine once fell in love with an angel sent from high above
With just one kiss she turned his world around
He?d lose track of time and space when she dressed in silk and lace
For weeks on end his footsteps made no sound
As time passed in the comfort zone he soon forgot what was his own
He took for granted things a lover knows
Yet the day before she planned to leave she gave my friend one last reprieve
As he offered up a single long-stemmed rose

Repeat Chorus

You never know what the day can bring
Life is good then the big bell rings
A moment later nothing is the same
The time that you?ve been counting on together is forever gone
All that?s left is memories and names
There?s lots of things that you can do to let her know what she means to you
Get dressed up and take her on the town
Just do yourself a favor son and let her know that she?s the one.
Take her in your arms and lay her down.

Repeat Chorus
