Love Takes Time - Orleans

I saw a twinkle in her eye

It lit a fire deep inside

But it burned so wild and strong

I knew it wouldn’t last for long

'Cause love takes time

And it’s hard to find

You gotta take some time

To let love grow

I saw a shooting star go by

It blazed a path across the sky

But the beauty did not last, no

Some things just happen all too fast

But love takes time

And it’s hard to find

You gotta take some time

To let love grow, whoa

Well, some think love’s a game

You play for a night or two

But I think that’s a shame

'Cause I know that in the end

They’re bound to lose

Love takes time

Yes, it’s hard to find

You gotta take some time

To let love grow

Oh, love takes time

I said that it’s hard to find

Oh, just take your time

And love will grow

If we really want our love to grow

We gotta take it slow, whoa

Love takes time

Yes, it’s hard to find

Baby, love takes time

Yours and mine, whoa
