Generate meaning
1
it takes a long time to learn to speak
2
your lips and lungs and throat and tongue start off so weak
3
and it takes even longer to learn what not to say
4
so i guess i'll have to wait
5
'cause it takes a long time to fall asleep
6
to stretch your arms out and bend your knees
7
and it takes even longer to wake up every day
8
so i guess i'll have to wait
9
'cause it takes a long time to learn to walk
10
so you celebrate your locomotion with shoes and socks
11
and it takes even longer to know just when to stop
12
so i guess i'll have to wait
13
you pull me in with all those pretty lights
14
i pull away and cover up my eyes
15
'cause i won't stay to fight a losing fight
16
i'll move away from any dog that bites
17
and i'm okay with being by myself
18
and i'm okay with drinking to my health
19
and i can't say just what i would've changed
20
all these things just have to be this way
21
it takes a long time to learn to live
22
to eat and breath and dance and sing and love and kiss
23
and there's no way to know just where to go from here
24
so i guess i'll have to wait
25
because it takes a long time.
In Memory of Joe Cocker 1944 - 2014
