[Verse 1]
I'd like to take a minute to apologize
For not taking advantage of you
Through all the years you've passed me by
Honestly, I really wanted to be mad at you, yes
For so many hours waiting, yeah
I finally know what it means to be patient, yeah
And everything has its place, yeah
And reason, and I've learned that

[Chorus]
Time waits for nothing (No)
And everything (Yeah)
Is gonna take its time (For it to happen)
Time waits for nothing (Oh)
And everything is gonna take its time
('Cause it will happen)
Time waits for nothing (Yeah)
And no one
('Cause everything has its time)

[Verse 2]
I used to think that if I tried then maybe I
Huh, could change the things that I regretted in my past life
But through all the lessons that you taught me
I have learned my experiences enhanced my character, yeah
Now, as I look back with what I know now, I can say
That I wouldn't change a thing
'Cause I love who I became, yeah
And when it's all said and done
I can only live for today
'Cause I've learned that
[Chorus]
Time waits for nothing (Yeah, oh-oh-oh)
And everything (Oh yeah)
Is gonna take its time (For it to happen)
Time waits for nothing (Yeah)
And everything is gonna take its time
(Things are gonna happen)
Time waits for nothing (Yeah, oh-oh-oh)
And no one
('Cause everything has its time)

[Bridge]
(Ooh-ooh-hoo)
I used to find it hard to believe
(Hard to believe)
And almost impossible to conceive, yeah
(To conceive)
That everything I do revolves around you
And knowing that, its kind crazy to me
Now if I had a dollar for every moment that I spent
Watching my days go by
Doing, doing, doing nothing
I'd probably never be penniless or hopeless
Ho-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 3]
So for a while now, I've kept in mind
'Cause what they say is true
That you are of the essence
Down to the very last second
And I'm so glad that I've grown to respect you
[Outro]
Time waits for nothing (Yeah)
And everything (Ho-oh, yeah)
Is gonna take its time
('Cause things are gonna happen)
Time waits for nothing
(Yeah, ho, ho, time, what)
And everything (Yeah) is gonna take its time
(Oh, 'cause things are gonna happen)
Time waits for nothing (Yeah, huh)
And everything is gonna take its time
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Time waits for nothing (Oh, oh-oh)
And everything (Yeah) is gonna take its time
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Time waits for nothing (Woo, oh)
And everything is gonna take its time (Oh)
