Lyrics of Time by Edwin Starr
intro
Well, well
Well, well, well, well, well
verse
Oh let me tell you
(Time)
Time is the one thing everybody feels
(Time)
It just expire with no regards to years
(Time)
They say time can bring about a change
(Time)
Listen, I ain't seein' a doggone thing
verse
But they say
(Time)
That's what they tell me
(It takes time)
Oh everyday they tell me, y'all
(Time)
I keep hearin' them sayin'
(It takes time)
Oh oh oh
verse
Well, now
(Time)
He says 'be handsome' - that's what people say
(Time)
But it looks like peace is getting further away
(Time)
Together we stand, and divided we fought
(Time)
But we are still divided by that unseen wall
chorus
But they say
(Time)
That's what they tell me
(It takes time)
Ever since I was a little billy boy, they say it
(Time)
That's what they tell me
(It takes time)
Everyday I hear the same, the same old thing
verse
They say time
They say time
They say time
They say time
But I wanna know, y'all
(How much time does it really take
Before this world of ours is in a bad shape)
Somebody tell me...
(Time)
verse
Well, well, well
(Time)
The day when time brings on that place a change
(Oh oh oh Time)
On that day the whole world will sing
(Time)
Time will have washed all our fears away
(Oh oh oh Time)
And peace will have brought us a brand new day
chorus
But it takes time
(Time)
That's what they tell me
(It takes time)
Everyday I keep hearin' them telling me that
(Time)
That's what they tell me
(It takes time)
Oh Lord I wanna know, now
verse
It takes time
It takes time
It takes time
But, oh, somebody tell me that
verse
(How much time does it really take
Before this world of ours is in a bad shape)
chorus
Oh Lord
(Time)
(It takes time)
That's what they tell me, Lord
(Time)
Everyday
(It takes time)
Oh let me tell you now
(Time)
It takes time
