Take Time

(Lisa Biales)
©2006 Lisa Biales BMI
I wrote this after hearing Shameka Copeland sing - I thought she needed better material. Ha!
You got to take time, don’t ever run around
You got to make time, come lay your troubles down
If you want to be mine, well if you want to be with me
I’ll take time for you

Don’t say you’ll meet me baby then leave me sitting all alone
Don’t say your gonna call then leave me waiting by the phone
Say what you mean, mean what you say
Don’t keep me guessing baby I don’t like that game
You better stop and think all I’m asking you is to

Take time, don’t ever run around
You got to make time, come lay your body down
If you want to be mine, well if you want to be with me
I’ll take time for you

Don’t ever leave me crying with just your picture on the wall
And when two weeks have gone by don’t say you know I was meaning to call
I’m not a trophy baby, I’m not a plaything
You better make your mind up soon I’ll be leaving
You better stop and think, all I’m asking you is to

Take time, don’t ever run around
You got to make time, come lay your body down
If you want to be mine, well if you want to be with me
I’ll take time for you


Mean what you say, say what you mean
I want you by my side not in my dreams
You better stop and think all I’m asking you is to

Take time, don’t ever run around
You got to make time, come lay your worries down
If you want to be mine, well if you want to be with me
I’ll take time for you
Take time, you got to take time
