Jackie Opel - Take Your Time


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Give me time to explain
The way I feel about you.
Don't try to play too smart:
You'll end up breaking in two.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.
 
The world wasn't made within a day,
So the Bible say.
Exodus 20:11 - For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, Exodus 21:24 - Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Leviticus 24:20 - Breach for breach, eye for eye, tooth for tooth: as he hath caused a blemish in a man, so shall it be done to him again.
Deuteronomy 19:21 - And thine eye shall not pity; but life shall go for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
Some day you'll get your pay.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.

You got what you want
And you think that's all.
Let me tell you something, brother:
Some day you've got to fall.
Don't play hypocrite with me, my friend,
Coz I know a long
The bull is going to overthrow
The fire will burn your hand.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.

Don't try too hard, too hard,
And you think that's all,
Let me tell you something, brother:
Some day you're going to fall.
Don't play hypocrite with me, my friend,
Coz I know a long
The bull is going to overthrow
The fire will burn your hand.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.
Why don't you take your time?
You better take your time.
Why don't you take your time?...
