Taking Our Time Lyrics by Mark Wilkinson (AUS)

Golden Afternoons

2023

[Verse 1]
Don't want to talk about the good times and the bad
Or the promise and the moments that somehow never last
Or the feeling in October when you felt like falling over
In the leaves that lay like pillows in the yard
And how are your early morning daydreams from afar?
With the coffee a little stronger after laying out your cards
I miss the humming in the kitchen that we never bothered fixing
Ain't it strange to think it's changed since it was ours?
[Chorus]
If we always wait for better days
Taking our time just to get back through the haze
And our plans, they go through endless change
Taking our time just to start it all again
[Verse 2]
I don't want to reason with the doubts stuck in my mind
Like a broken wheel of treason ever turning its blind eye
And do you ever wonder with no memory of the past
If we'd live a little better knowing nothing ever lasts?
[Chorus]
If we always wait for better days
Taking our time just to get back through the haze
And our plans, they go through endless change
Taking our time just to start it
[Bridge]
And I once stumbled with my failures
But now cut loose with a knife
To see the morning rays unravel in a symphony of light
And a harlequin reminder that stays crisscrossed in my mind
I won't fall into the shadows of what I intend to leave behind
I won't fall into the shadows of what I intend to leave behind
[Chorus]
But we always wait for better days
Taking our time just to get back through the haze
And our plans, they go through endless change
Taking our time just to start it all again
If we always wait for better days
Taking our time just to get back through the haze
And our plans, they go through endless change
Taking our time just to start it all again
