Take Your Time Lyrics by David Dilin

Vice Versifier

2013

[Verse 1: David Dilin]
Rain is precipitating
Apples and purple raisins
Pillows and picture paintings
Remnants of regret straining
Down my neck, who'd I let in my head?
Oh, they won't let me speak my vocal chords are dead
Words clogged up in motion that are holding back emotion
Building up like oceans, there come waves and erosion
With persistence so devout, it forces through my mouth
The plain truth revealed in a nasty shout
I'm backing out of what had happened in the past
I'm just a student in a class learning from my mistakes
So let me frolic in the rain, the water wash away my pain
I'm still learning what it takes
[Hook]
Take your time, dear. Take your time
Wish I would take my time
Take your time, dear. Take your time
Wish I would take my time
[Verse 2: David Dilin]
Bet you don't get it, baby
I've never dealt with ladies
And all the feelings lately
Leave life confused and hazy
So what is left? Just a blurry vision
This is a test. I got an F
And we break up. I guess it stood for Fission
We moved too fast and crashed 'fore we could see each other
Can I request a second chance? And I don't mean to bother
We were getting it on without getting it in
And we went way too far just to commit a sin
So I ask for forgiveness and it's scribbled in stone
God requests the devil leave this cripple alone
It's all become little and the sin is atoned
And I listen for familiar fiddles; I'm home
[Hook]
Take your time, dear. Take your time
Wish I would take my time
Take your time, dear. Take your time
Wish I would take my time
[Verse 3: Jonathan Dilin]
Yeah. Uh
Who'd have thought, Who'd have thought
We had lost that
On that path of life, we ain't even crossed yet
Get a call. Yeah, baby, we done lost that
Pick it back up, abortions they're never farfetched
From it all in this life that we call it
For you I shine everytime. Armor-All it
I'mma shine, I'mma ball, I'mma call it
Next time cause you know that were fallin'
Out of love into love. What's the difference, Ma?
You know its always hard to keep them pancakes flippin' yeah
I was the type to make you breakfast
But we break so fast, can't recall who broke they neck less
Break down so low, we hit Texas
Down to South Pole now, off my check list
We never had goals. I think that's why we lost it all
If we had a few, could've picked up an altar call
Yeah, we was never sleeping, we was handlin' business
Dudes creepin' smelly, call that handlin' "chitlins."
Dudes like the weekends, yeah they handle they feelings
Broke up on a Tuesday so I scrambled my feelings
Took a time out, hard to find what's hidden
Cause what we all miss is the frame on the picture
Call Amber, common sense gone missin'
If you don't take your time, Time's gon' take you with her. Like...
[Hook]
Take your time, dear. Take your time
Wish I would take my time
Take your time, dear. Take your time
Wish I would take my time
