It Takes So Much Time Lyrics - Singles - Fran Smith

She always said crying won't get things done 

She said the rain never brings out the sun 

And you know that she'd tell you those tears won't un-break your heart. 

And you're trying to stay sober, but you say it's a risk 

'Cos a drink or two can get you through the bad days like this 

This times when you miss her so much it just tears you apart. 

The one thing you know now is that nothing lasts forever 

And I promise you that one day you'll be fine 

Nobody ever said that it was going to be easy 

But it takes so much time. 

You think that they'll say that you make a fuss, 

That death is hard for all of us: 

We all love, then watch our loved ones fade away. 

The truth is: no one gives a toss 

About anybody else's loss 

We're all dealing with our own grief day by day. 

The one thing you know now is that nothing lasts forever 

And I promise you that one day you'll be fine 

Nobody ever said that it was going to be easy 

But it takes so much time. 

The drawbridge to your heart 

That was drawn up at the start 

She had been the one to bring it crashing down 

But now she's gone, the hearts and the flowers 

Are once more banished to the towers 

And your hopes wade out into the moat to drown. 

The one thing you know now is that nothing lasts forever 

And I promise you that one day you'll be fine 

Nobody ever said that it was going to be easy 

But it takes so much time. 

Yes, it takes so much time.
