It's Going To Take Some Time
- Recorded by: The Carpenters
- From the 1972 album, A Song For You
It's going to take some time this time
To get myself in shape
I really fell out-of-line this time
I really missed the gate.
The birds on the telephone line (next time)
Are cryin' out to me (next time)
And I won't be so blind next time
And I'll find some harmony.
But it's going to take some time this time
And I can't make demands
But like the young trees in the wintertime
I'll learn how to bend.
After all the tears we've spent
How could we make amends
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time.
I can't make demands
I'll learn how to bend.
Instrumental Break
It's going to take some time this time
No matter what I plan
But like the young trees in the wintertime
I'll learn how to bend.
After all the tears we've spent
How could we make amends
So it's one more round for experience
And I'm on the road again
And it's going to take some time this time.
