It Takes Time Lyrics - Singles - Doris Day

It takes time 

To get your gal to see the light 

It takes time 

It isn't always love at sight 

From the first little glance 

'Til she's ready for romance 

Remember, little man, it takes time 

It takes time 

To make the coffee percolate 

It takes time 

To get your gal to set the date 

From the first moonlight walk 

'Til you get the baby talk 

Remember, little man, it takes time

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

Now, Rome wasn't built in a day they say 

Not to mention the Pyramids and Sphinx 

It took old Rip Van Winkle all of twenty years 

To squeeze the livin' daylights out of forty winks 

It takes time 

To turn the Winter into Spring 

It takes time 

To get the dough to get the ring 

From the first little smile 

'Til you're walkin' down the aisle 

Remember, little man, it takes time 

(Bridge) 

It takes time 

To make the coffee percolate 

It takes time 

To get your gal to set the date 

From the first moonlight walk 

'Til you get the baby talk 

Remember, little man, it takes time
