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



And I can t make demands

I ll learn how to bend



It s going to take some time this time

No matter what I ve planned

But like the young trees in the wintertime

I ll learn how to bend



Repeat (*)
