Took the Time (Song)


Innocent and beautiful, the gypsy sways
She swirls alone so gracefully
Lost in the web she has made
Heading for a fall she cannot see


She's losing herself slowly
Does she really care?
No one knows where she's going
All that matters is that she gets there.


She says You think you know so much about me
Well, think again, 'cause you're wrong
I've been through more pain than one pair of eyes should see
Sung my fair amount of sad songs

It's there for you to see
You don't have to look very hard
If you ever took the time to look at me
It's there in the scars

She knows her demons will find her
Simply hiding them away
Shawls and lace wrap around her
Consuming her while the moon holds her sway


The velvet blanket of darkness falls
Shadows bury her alive
Heeding the warning of her heart's call
Knowing there's no place to hide


She says "You think you know so much about me
Well, think again, 'cause you're wrong
I've been through more pain than one pair of eyes should see
Sung my fair amount of sad songs

It's there for you to see
You don't have to look very hard
If you ever took the time to look at me
It's there in the scars
