It takes time

It takes time to love

It takes time to recover

From those we've lost

And find new bonds

That last forever.

It takes time to hug

It takes time to own 

It takes time to find

Room in our hearts

In this daily grind.

It takes time for you

It takes time for me

To understand where we want to be

But once we're there

Were there for good.

I hope there words aren't misunderstood.

It takes time to cope 

It takes time for hope.

And hope is all we need

To get us all through

This new life we lead.
