Phil Spillman - I Take My Time Lyrics




Everybody's in a hurry
Like we got somewhere to go
But if you ask us where it is
Hell, we don't know

We just run so we're not left
Sucking dust from the other guy
It's like a race to the grave
Who's in a hurry to cross that finish line

So I take my time
I won't rush through the day
I want to watch that sunset fade from that clear blue sky
I take my time
Cause' I've only got one time around
Why speed it up if I can slow it down
So whether it's love I'm gonna be making
Or pouring a glass of deep red wine
I take my time

What's so important
That keeps our foot on the gas
I think those old timers were on to something
When they said this too shall pass
Still each year we set our alarms
For one more shot at success
And then we schedule out our minutes
To fill a life where we just exist

So I take my time
I'm not promised more than today
I want to watch my kids play in the summer sunshine
I take my time
Yes, I'll have another beer
And give thanks that you're here
Whether it's love I'm gonna be making
Or sipping glass 2 of this bottle of wine
I take my time

24 hours, 7 days, 52 weeks from beginning to end
I want to put my hands and my kisses on you
Instead of chasing the wind

We all want that blue ribbon
We all want to be head of the class
And yes we should take some pride
In our pounding feet and aching backs
But success is measured
In more than dollars and cents
And time is a currency
That is spent once it's spent

So I take my time
I want to read every word on every page
I want to soak in today
Cause this is my life
I take my time
Cause there is no replay
And today is today
So whether it's love we're gonna be making
After this 3rd glass of wine
I take my time
