Change Takes Time Lyrics

That boy has big ideas
with his guitar in hand
he wants to change the world
But he don't understand

The things he wants to do are more than quite all right
But he can't see that it won't happen overnight

Change takes time
Change takes time

He stands so confident
Behind the microphone
He'll barely make a dent
In hearts as hard as stone

I couldn't argue that he's probably sincere
he won't face up to what he doesn't want to hear

Change takes time
Change takes time

You always talked about the answers my friend
You thought you had 'em in your pocket But it don't ever work that easy in the end
What can I say to make you stop it

Instant coffee
Instant tea
Minute rice
Express mail
Real communication
Responsible morality
Christian maturity

A dark and silent stage
The crowd has all gone home
He thinks it went okay
'Cause they just cheered him on

But outside the door there's so much anger in the street
And he's so unaware there'll be a price for him to keep

Change takes time
Change takes time
Change takes time
It takes time
It takes time
