Give it Time

I had a woman
She was so untrue
She did to me what she’s done to you

You thought she wouldn’t
But she made a fool
Out of you
And everyone else too

Love was just a make believe
And It was never there for you or me or any
Of the others, so naive
Of us to let her use all of her tricks
To be above us whenever we tried to leave
She was so clever, and we felt guilty all the time

I know just what you’ve been through
There’s nothing wrong with you

She was just a woman, brother, let her go
Just give it time
Gotta give it time, give it time
And you’ll forget everything that went on
Move on

Listen to me for a moment
It’ll be all right
It won’t be long, no it won’t
Just give it time and see

You say that
You know this woman
But you didn’t have a clue
About the things that she’s done to you

And for a moment
All you wanna do
Is, maybe, try again
And bring her back to you

But I’ve been there before
Don’t go there anymore

‘Cause love was just a make believe
And It was never there for you or me or any
Of the others, so naive
Of us to let her use all of her tricks
To be above us whenever we tried to leave
She was so clever, and we felt guilty all the time

I know just what you’ve been through
There’s nothing wrong with you

She was just a woman brother, let her go
Just give it time
Gotta give it time, give it time
And you’ll forget everything that went on
Move on

Listen to me for a moment
It’ll be all right
It won’t be long, no it won’t
Just give it time and see

Brother, please
Open up your ears
Don’t break your heart
You’re bound to be apart
