Some Things Take Time
Patience and Heartache: Unraveling the Layers of Love in 'Some Things Take Time' by Katie Lyon
Lyrics
Some Things Take Time
Some things require patience and cannot be rushed.
You tell me he’s a nice boy and your mean it
Your claim that he is a good person is genuine.
But if you’re trying to convince me you’re in love I don’t believe it
Doubts exist regarding the sincerity of your love declaration.
Some things take time
Reiterating the idea that certain matters need time.
But these things take tolls
However, these matters can also have negative effects.
I know that you’re worried about your family
Concerns about your family are acknowledged.
But if you don’t use your heart that thing is gonna atrophy
Using your heart is essential; neglect may cause it to deteriorate.
Some things take time
Reiterating that some things take time.
But these things take tolls
Emphasizing that these things may come with hardships.
I feel for you
Expressing empathy or compassion towards your situation.
Do you feel for me
Asking if there is a reciprocal feeling from your side.
The way that I, the way that I
Comparing the intensity of feelings between the two.
Feel for you?
Questioning if your emotions match mine.
You didn’t read the line just how I wrote it
Noting a deviation from the original message, leading to a change in actions.
So now I hold a drink instead of you
Substituting physical presence with a drink due to the alteration in communication.
Some things take time
Reiterating the time factor in certain situations.
But these things take tolls
Highlighting the potential toll or negative impact of these situations.
I feel for you
Restating empathy or understanding towards your predicament.
Do you feel for me
Inquiring about your reciprocal feelings again.
The way that I, the way that I
Comparing the depth of emotions on both sides.
Feel for you?
Repeating the question about the similarity of emotions.
I feel for you
Expressing ongoing empathy or compassion.
Do you feel for me
Reiterating the inquiry about reciprocal feelings.
Some things take time
Emphasizing again that certain things require time.
But these things take tolls
Repeating the potential toll or challenges associated with these situations.
