You got to take your time now
If love is going to take you by the hand.
Need to take your time though
Cause love is not a thing you can command.

There's got to be a reason,
Got to be a closeness,
Got to have a feelin',
Only you can now it.

And when you find love hold on tight.
Don't ever waste another night.
You're gonna make it through in spite of your fears.
Can anybody hear me?
Is anybody out there?

I listen to the river.
I hear the river calling out her name.
Tryin' to forgive her.
But nothin's gonna ever be the same.

There's got to be a reason.
Got to be closeness,
Got to have a feelin',
Only you can know it.

And when you find love hold on tight.
Don't ever waste another night.
You're gonna make it through in spite of your fears.
Can anybody hear me?
Is anybody out there?

Got to be a reason,
Got to have closeness,
Got to have a feelin',
Only you can know it.

And when you find love hold on tight.
Don't ever waste another night.
You're gonna make it through in spite of your fears.
Can anybody hear me?
Is anybody out there?
