Take Your Time
NO SWOON Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was reason
Though there was time before this fogged up mind
It was all us
Drifting from this laugh
I think
It was all us
When I let you see through it all
When I let you be through it all
Take your time
I'll take my time
I will let you see through it all
I will let you be through it all
I will let you be
The lyrics to NO SWOON's song "Take Your Time" hint at a reflection on a past relationship that was clouded by confusion, yet ultimately was the right decision to end. The lyrics suggest that the decision to end the relationship may have come after prolonged contemplation, with "time" being a recurring theme throughout the song. The singer admits that their mind had become "fogged up" before the relationship ended, but ultimately affirms that the decision to separate was the correct one. The lines "When I let you see through it all/When I let you be through it all" could be interpreted as the singer allowing their partner to see their true feelings, and accepting the consequences that came with that transparency.
