Lyrics
It Takes Time
It takes time to pour honey from a jar
Time for dust to change into a star
No matter how hard you try
You can't push a cloud across the sky
Love can't be hurried
Love can't be rushed
Love is occurring with each gentle touch
When the sun comes up 'til the shadows fall below
It takes time for love to grow
It takes time to rock someone to sleep
Only time can make a river deep
It takes time for sand to turn to gold
And for the sun to melt the winter snow
