How Much Time Does It Take

(album: Don Williams, Vol. 1 - 1973)

How much time does it take to get it right
How much time does it take to get along
Well, you worry me about it day and night
How much time does it take to get it right?

I've heard that life is like a song
When you find a friend well the world just sings along
But something's wrong with you and me
'Cause you wont sing the song and I can't let it be.

How much time does it take to get it right
How much time does it take to get along
Well you worry me about it day and night
How much time does it take to get it right?

[Instrumental]

We've learned the words, we knew what to say
What about the feeling, lost along the way
You tried the waltz, 2 step gets you down
And I just get the feeling like sitting out a round.

How much time does it take to get it right
How much time does it take to get along
Well you worry me about it day and night
How much time does it take to get it right?

How much time does it take to get it right
How much time does it take to get along
Well you worry me about it day and night
How much time does it take to get it right?...
