Just Give It Time
Jon McLaughlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And plans we made all fell apart,
Disillusioned and lost in the grace
And how can we fix the heart when it breaks,
You don't know how much more you can take,
just give it time, it's gonna get better,
Now is not forever at all,
Just give it time and everything changes,
Tomorrow comes today will be gone,
And everything is gonna be alrite just give it time, give it time
quiet landslide that nobody knows,
Regreted decissions that nobody chose,
Under water, sinking fast
And no way out, no way to get back
What might have been is lost in the past
just give it time, it's gonna get better,
Now is not forever at all,
Just give it time and everything changes,
Tomorrow comes today will be gone,
And everything is gonna be alrite
Just give it time
(and the web your in?)
And still you give
It all fades out,
You reached the end
Your giving in now, now
just give it time, it's gonna get better,
Now is not forever at all,
Just give it time and everything changes,
Tomorrow comes today will be gone,
Just give it time, it's gonna get better,
Now is not forever at all,
Just give it time and everything changes,
Tomorrow comes today will be gone,
And everything is gonna be alrite, everything is gonna be alrite
Just give it time, yea time
