Take Your Time

I don't always know how to tell you whats on my mind
 I'm slowly sayin' goodbye to the life I'm leaving behind
 In my heart I know for sure that its time to let it all go 
 But baby be patient
 We need to take it nice and slow
 I carry no sorrows and kee[ no secrets
 But baby I'm not ready to move too far ahead just yet
 Take a deep breath and actually hear what I'm tryin' to say
 If you just take your time I'll let you lead the way
 I've got to do this in my own time
 Im not ready to shine
 Its still my time to live and learn
 And only then can I carry the name I'll earn
