Bonnie Raitt - Takin' My Time Lyrics

(Bill Payne)

I'm takin' my time so please don�t rush me
Tryin' to sort out some things I didn't know existed
I've been here before, I know where the traps lie
You only take what's there �cause the rest doesn't matter.

Well I�m tired of talk so please don't push me
You know I want the same kinda things that you do
You're wasting your time the way you come to me
Slow down your rhymes and try to reason.

Can't make things move any faster by second wishing them to death
You seem to be living on the level
It's decent enough you got what you wanted
So why do you tell me that I'm on the wrong track
I'm doin' the best I can do.

I try to out guess the situation
That I know your not even fully aware of
And I want you to know if it keeps on this way
Can't keep on letting you bring me down.

Can't keep on letting you bring me down...
