You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
You love her so and still you know
That you will never want to let her go
Unless you leave her first
Then you come "out on top"
But, still there's just one thing
You haven't got
Like when you treated her kind
It's hard to face that open space
You're lookin' for peace of mind
Anywhere you can find
Still searchin' for peace of mind.
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
When first you gave and shared your soul
Showed her all the things that take their toll
She knows your weak spot
But, still she gets you hot
And, so you do it again
Reveal what lies within
And go for peace of mind
Like when you treated her kind
It's hard to face that open space
You know it takes a long, long time
You know it takes a long, long time
