Take Your Time
Embrace Life's Rhythm: Jefferson Starship's Take Your Time
Lyrics
I'm gonna make one hour in inte
I aim to create an hour of intense focus
Just a few minutes
Just a brief amount of time
I'm gonna get two days for the
I plan to achieve two days' worth for the cost of one
Price of one
A metaphorical idea of getting extra value
There's a one word rhyme
Life's essence is encapsulated in a single word - living
And that's called living
Living fully and authentically
Thare's a one word love
The essence of love is giving abundantly
Means plenty of giviing
Generosity and selflessness in love
I'm gonna give it 'til I'm done
I'll keep giving until I've completed what I set out to do
But everybody keeps telling me to
Advice from others to relax and not rush
Take it easy
Time doesn't wait for anyone
But time doesn't sit down and wait
While I strive to accomplish my goals
While I'm trying to get it done
Thankfully, others don't face the same pressures as me
But you're not me, thank god
You have the freedom to take your time leisurely
You can take your time slowly
It pleases me to witness you relax at your own pace
Makes me fell good just to watch
Indulging in leisure brings me joy
You lie down and have your fun
You're encouraged to enjoy and relax
Take your time
Encouragement to take your time
Take your time
-And I'll take my own time
-(repeat 2x)
-I can take it slowly or you can keep
Repetition emphasizing taking one's own pace
Runnin' on runnin' on
-When I put one foot in front of
-The other
-To me that doesn't mean walk that
-Means run
-I always want to start the race
-Before the gates open
-I always want to start the race
-Before I hear the sound
-Of the gun
-But everybody keeps tellin' me to
-Take it easy
-But time doesn't sit down and wait
-While I'm trying to get it done
-But you're not me, thank god
-You can take your time slowly
-Makes me fell good just to watch
-You lie down and have your fun
-Take your time
Take your time
-And I'll take my own time
Continued emphasis on taking personal time
And I'll take my own time
-And I'll take my own time
-And I'll take my own time
-And I'll take my own time
-And I'll take my own time
-You say it'll take a you year
You say it will take a long time
I say just take me a second
Both quick and extended perspectives are valid
But there's room for both of us
There's space for different approaches
Just open the room
There's ample opportunity for various paces
You know a year of time sees so
A year witnesses considerable changes
Many changes
Referencing the speed of change and time
And the speed of light in the black
Light's speed emphasizes the passage of time
Of night
Metaphorical imagery of time passing swiftly
Makes a full moon
Comparison of time's speed to a full moon's appearance
