lyrics

We got the rum and we got the spice, the sun and our best crystal have both come out
We got the mixer and we got the ice, now we got something to shout about
But the first glass didn’t go down right, I was too eager to succeed
So I turned to my love and I asked her, what does it need?

And she said...
It just needs time, it just needs time, it just needs time

Now we got the car and we got the kids, little house on the hill
Stainless steel pans and matching lids, grandchildren in the will
Saw my father yesterday, out with the family
I asked him, what does it take to be in love, and does he see it in me?

And he said...
It just takes time, it just takes time, it just takes time

Now we’ve got our hopes and we’ve got our dreams, checklist in hand
But not all of our plans and schemes work out like we schemed and planned
Well I asked my love, do we only work for reward?
Do we only work to raise the stakes, to live and die by the sword?

And she said...
That’s just the price of time, can’t give me yours can’t give you mine, that’s just the price of time
