Take Your Time

from Green by Evan Knapp

lyrics

Push the clutch, I let my mind wander but it went too far
There’s so much I need to get done but don’t know where to start
I emulate all of my idols but I’ve hit a wall
Concentrate, I’m so frustrated give my babe a call

And I say, “I’m behind. Every day is a chance and now I’m wasting mine.”
And she says, ”Change your mind. You’ve got your whole life to live,
I think you’re doing just fine.”
And I say, “You’re right. I’ve just got to focus on what’s most important.”
She says, “Take your time. Your opportunity will arise.”

He could play better than me when he was 17
She says, “Don’t compare yourself to others if you want to be happy.
And that’s what we all want. Isn’t that what we all want?”
Happy... isn’t that what we all want?

But I still say, “I’m behind. Every day is a chance and now I’m wasting mine.”
And she says, ”Change your mind. You’ve got your whole life to live
I think you’re doing just fine.”
And I say, “You’re right. I’ve just got to focus on what’s most important.”
She says, “Take your time. Your opportunity will arise.”

Who do I want to be want to be, me?
Do I want to be want to be me?
I’m just a wannabe wannabe he
I just gotta be gotta be me

And I say, “I’m behind. Every day is a chance and now I’m wasting mine.”
And she says, ”Change your mind. You’ve got your whole life to live
I think you’re doing just fine.”
And I say, “You’re right. I’ve just got to focus on what’s most important.”
She says, “Take your time. Your opportunity will arise. I think you’re doing just fine.
Your opportunity will arise.”

I'm a singer, songwriter, and bassist from Upstate New York currently making music in Los Angeles, CA.

It's taken me a while to get to the point where I can release my own music and have a pretty big backlog to get through, so be on the lookout for new tunes.

Thanks for stopping by and let me know of any comments/criticisms! ... more
