The Time It Takes - Jam in the Van, The Show Ponies, Jam in the Van, The Show Ponies

If we would’ve met when we were younger

I don’t think we would have fallen in love

You were the queen of homecoming

And a member of the country club

I was a jack backyard cinema

With flowing locks of gold

And I had a heavy conscience

So I did what I was told

Ain’t it funny where we were back then

Ain’t it funny where we are right now

It’s strange the time it takes for us

To finally start to figure it out

If you could’ve seen me in the hard times

My face when I was young

I would’ve seen you s a trophy

For the hell I’d overcome

Now I’m not the one I was back then

And the struggles don’t define me

I met you in that holy heat

Now let the fire re-find me

Ain’t it funny where we were back then

Ain’t it funny where we are right now

It’s strange the time it takes for us

To finally start to figure it out

All the fire we go through

God only knows what time will do

All the promises we make

God only knows the time it takes

So take my hand, take my name

God only knows why we change

Take my hand, take my name

God only knows why we change

Ain’t it funny where we were back then

Ain’t it funny where we are right now

It’s strange the time it takes for us

To finally start to figure it out

Ain’t it funny where we were back then

Ain’t it funny where we are right now

It’s strange the time it takes for us

To finally start to figure it out

It’s strange the time it takes for us

To finally start to figure it out

It’s strange the time it takes for us

To finally start to figure it out
