Life goes on, it ain't waitin' on me They told me, "When you grow up, boy, you will see" Well, I did my best and played my cards But damn, I never thought shit would be this hard And they still tell me, "Give it time, have a little patience Stars will line up beyond your expectations." But I find myself lost, just tryin’ to do my best While I keep the rhythm beatin’ in my chest, singin' Good things take time Truth is, everybody's lost, ain't nobody know the way Most of the time, they don't know what they’re sayin’ We're all just tryin’ to make it through another day Learnin’ the rules as we play, singin’.... Good things take time Sometimes I get some good advice Sometimes I gotta pay twice And at the end of the day, I'm lucky if I'm satisfied But now and then, I’m just terrified... singin’ Good things take time
