Mariah Carey
Love Takes Time (Live at Proctor’s Theatre, NY – 1993)
[Verse 1]
I had it all
But I let it slip away
Couldn't see that I treated you wrong
Now I wander around
Feeling down and cold
Trying to believe that you're gone

[Chorus]
Love takes time
To heal when you're hurting so much
Couldn't see that I was blind
To let you go
I can't escape the pain
Inside
'Cause love takes time
I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here alone

[Verse 2]
I'm losing my mind
From this hollow in my heart, oh yeah
Suddenly I'm so incomplete
Lord I'm needing you now
Won't you tell me how to stop the rain
My tears are falling down endlеssly
[Chorus]
Love takes time
To hеal when you're hurting so much
Couldn't see that I was blind
To let you go
I can't escape the pain
Inside
'Cause love takes time
And I don't want to be here
I don't want to be here alone

[Bridge]
You might say that it's over
You might say that you don't care
You might say you don't miss me
You don't need me
But I know that you do and I feel that you do
Inside

[Chorus]
Love takes time
To heal when you're hurting so much
Couldn't see that I, I was so blind
To let you go
I can't escape the pain
Inside
Because love takes time yeah
I don't want to be there
I don't want to be there alone
