Love Takes Time Songtext
von Robert Palmer

(Love takes time) If we could turn back time
(Love takes time) Oh, if we could go back to the beginning
(Love takes time) If we could rewind the clocks
(Love takes time) We could have timed it down to the minute

We had some words today that blew the clouds away
They were long overdue
And now the air is clear about the whole affair
Apologies from me to you

Time, love, love takes time
If you deny love, you′ll lose your mind
Just relax, then you'll get it
′Cause your heart knows what's in it
And what goes around comes around
And don't you forget it

(Love takes time) If we could turn back time
(Love takes time) If we could go back to the beginning
(Love takes time) Love is a compromise
(Love takes time) But with some patience, you′ll find you′re winning


It strikes like lightning and changes everything
Your whole point of view
Opens all kind of doors, so now my heart is yours
With compliments from me to you

Time, love, love takes time
If you deny love, you'll lose your mind
Just relax, then you′ll get it
'Cause your heart knows what′s in it
And what goes around comes around
And don't you forget it

You can′t rush it
It takes tender loving care
If you're gonna make it there
Through the ups and downs, you'll get turned around
Oh, but I′ll hang in there with you

Time, love, love takes time
If you deny love, you′ll lose your mind
Just relax, then you'll get it
′Cause your heart knows what's in it
And what goes around comes around
And don′t you forget it, baby


(Love takes time and it's worth learning)
(Love takes time to grow by learning)
If we could go back to the beginning
If we could rewind the clocks
We would have timed it down to the minute
If we could turn back time
If we could go back to the beginning
