"Take Your Time" lyrics

"Take Your Time"

Stumbling in front of you, I don't wanna cry
I cool it down with whiskey, tears they never dry
Reading all the messages, drinking up the time
Like a message in a bottle, but the story never dies

(And I know)
We bottle it up just to let it fall through
(But oh)
Why'd you have to leave so soon?

Just wish that dream away
And take your time today
To make yourself okay
I know
Things might drift away
When we get old and gray
But I will never say that I'm old

Stumbling in front of you
Feelings set aside
Leave it be and work it out, but feelings never lie
Reading all the messages, makes me think about my life
Like a highway led to heaven, but the ride will never die

(And I know)
We bottle it up just to let it fall through
(But oh)
Why'd you have to leave so soon?

Just wish that dream away
And take your time today
To make yourself okay
I know
Things might drift away
When we get old and gray
But I will never say that I'm old

Alright, welcome to the Sinking Ships and Story Tales EP
We hope you're enjoying your stay
Now before we get to the drop, we need to go through a couple of guidelines
It's nothing big, I just need you to take your time
And really take in every moment because, we're only here for a short time, not a long one
So I only have one thing left to say
(Take your time)

Just wish that dream away
And take your time today
To make yourself okay
I know
Things might drift away
When we get old and gray
But I will never say that I'm old
(Take your time)
