It's going to take some time this time
to get myself in shape
i really fell outta line this time
i really missed the gate
the birds on the telephone line (this time)
are calling out to me (this time)
and i won't be so blind next time and i'll find some harmony
and it's going to take some time this time
no matter what i plan
and like the young trees
in the winter time
i'll learn how to bend
after all the tears we've shed
how could we make amends
so it's one more round for experience
and i'm on the road again
and it's going to take some time, this time
