The Lilac Time - Take Time lyrics

I was on the level when I began to slide I was on the top rung too when I began to climb I called you up from the abyss To say the purpose of your life is Just to live your life The life that you are living You don't know what they're doing They do it very well If you ask for Heaven, oh They'll try to sell you Hell And if you live within their laws They'll take your life and still want more And they'll hurry you so just tell them to... Take time, it'll be fine Take time, what's your hurry to be dying? You've got a life to live If only you could give If you don't have money Oh, they'll try to keep you poor And if you've lots of money Oh, they'll try to give you more And we were born with simple needs But they teach us greed and not to read This is our world too so just tell them to... Take time, it'll be fine Take time, what's your hurry to be dying? You've got a life to live If only you could give I want your attention Time is their invention Take time but take it easy Take it like the time Take time Take time Take time Take time
