It Takes Time

Glen Phillips · Other Songs - Glen Phillips

The water\'s getting deeper and I can\'t feel my feet

I keep on bailing buckets, but it flows right back to me

And everything is put away, the children are asleep

But the water\'s getting deeper, and I can\'t feel my feet

How am I gonna make time

Oh, this is gonna take time

How am I gonna make time

Everything looks different, colors all seem strange

And light comes down in shafts, here underneath the waves

And everything is in its place and the children are asleep

But the water\'s getting deeper, and I can\'t feel my feet

(Chorus)

I am provider, but Providence has been swayed

And by design nothing is ever the same

I thought that time had only one way to go

I learned how to swim, but not to breathe underwater

(Chorus)

I can\'t feel my feet

I can\'t feel my feet
