Sometimes, It Takes Some Time-Song Version

Listen to poem:

Sometimes Sometimes... we are born, with big dreams Sometimes... we are born with none Sometimes... the money comes too easy Sometimes... some never have enough Chorus Sometimes... sometimes it takes, some time some day... our dreams may all come true Sometimes... it takes, some time to find the love for you Sometimes... it just takes, some time Sometimes... our hearts, they may be broken Sometimes, we seek out peace and love Sometimes... some words are best unspoken Sometimes... you leave when it's too much Chorus Sometimes... sometimes it takes, some time some day... our dreams may all come true Sometimes... it takes, some time to find the love for you Sometimes... it just takes, some time Bridge Being apart ‘til the storm subsides Sometimes, it just takes, some time a little patience, to unwind the innocence of heart and mind Sometimes, the cards, that we’ve been dealt with Sometimes... they may not be enough Sometimes... we’re anxious, and we worry (too much) Sometimes... we’re blessed, with a very tender touch Chorus Sometimes... sometimes it takes, some time some day... our dreams may all come true Sometimes... it takes, some time to find the love for you Sometimes... it just takes, some time Finale Sometimes, it just takes, some time Sometimes, it just takes, some time John Derek Hamilton Revised September 20,2018 Posted November 09,2018 Music and vocal by Pat Canavan (Toronto) Copyright © John Hamilton | Year Posted 2018

I totally enjoyed this musical production and I thought the catchy melody conveyed the thoughtful and somewhat melancholic mood of your lyrics beautifully, John. Great music and vocals from Pat Canavan and great lyrics by you, John. Your song is already in my head and I’m humming it to myself as I leave these comments for you - a catchy and memorable melody for sure. Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan
