These Things Take Time (2008 Remastered Version)
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wonder-kind
You took me behind a dis-used railway line
And said, "I know a place where we can go
Where we are not known"
And then you gave me something that I won't forget too soon
But I can't believe that you'd ever care
And this is why you will never care
But these things take time
And I know, I know that I'm
The most inept that ever stepped
I'm spellbound, but a woman divides
And the hills are alive with celibate cries
But you know where you came from
You know where you're going
And you know where you belong
You said I was ill and you were not wrong
But I can't believe that you'd ever care
And so you'll never care
These things take time
And I know, I know that I'm
The most inept that ever stepped
Oh, the alcoholic afternoons
When we sat in your room
They meant more to me
Than any, than any living thing on earth
They had more worth
Than any living thing on earth
On earth, on earth, ohh...
Vivid and in your prime
You will leave me behind
You will leave me behind
You took me behind a dis-used railway line
And said, "I know a place where we can go
Where we are not known"
And then you gave me something that I won't forget too soon
But I can't believe that you'd ever care
And this is why you will never care
But these things take time
And I know, I know that I'm
The most inept that ever stepped
I'm spellbound, but a woman divides
And the hills are alive with celibate cries
But you know where you came from
You know where you're going
And you know where you belong
You said I was ill and you were not wrong
But I can't believe that you'd ever care
And so you'll never care
These things take time
And I know, I know that I'm
The most inept that ever stepped
Oh, the alcoholic afternoons
When we sat in your room
They meant more to me
Than any, than any living thing on earth
They had more worth
Than any living thing on earth
On earth, on earth, ohh...
Vivid and in your prime
You will leave me behind
You will leave me behind
