"Good Things Take Time" lyrics

"Good Things Take Time"

Even though it took a while
Good things take time

You weren't there when I needed you most
You let me down like for the twentieth time, now I know
That you're not gonna be the somebody
To carry me when I feel so weak
You weren't there when I needed you most
And I, I've been getting on with life
And I feel happy when you're off my mind

Oh, baby
Even though it took a while to let you go
And my heart still don't feel right, but now I know
Good things take time, and oh
Good things take time

And I've been working on myself, on myself
And I don't need nobody else, -body else, uh-oh
Even though it took a while, and now I know
Good things take time

Things are better now that I moved on, I feel lighter
I depended on you for too long, now I know that
I'm yhe somebody to care for me and it feels so free
Things are better now that you are gone

Oh, baby
Even though it took a while to let you go
And my heart still don't feel right, but now I know
Good things take time, and oh
Good things take time

And I've been working on myself, on myself
And I don't need nobody else, -body else, uh-oh
Even though it took a while, and now I know
Good things take time

For myself, for myself
Ah-ooh-ooh
For myself, for myself
Ah-ooh-ooh
For myself, for myself
Good things take time
And oh

Even though it took a while to let you go
And my heart still don't feel right, but now I know
Good things take time, and oh
Good things take time
