carole king – it’s going to take some time lyrics

it’s going to take some time this time
to get myself in shape
and i really fell out of line this time
i really missed the gate

the birds on the telephone line
(next time)
are cryin’ out to me
(next time)
and i won’t be so blind next time
and i’ll find some harmony

but it’s going to take some time this time
and i can’t make demands
but, like the young trees in the winter time
i’ll learn how to bend

after all the tears we’ve spent, how could we make amends?
so, it’s one more round for experience
and i’m on the road again
and it’s going to take some time, this time

it’s going to take some time this time
no matter what i’ve planned
and, like the young trees in the winter time
i’ll learn how to bend

after all the tears we’ve spent, how could we make amends?
so, it’s one more round for experience
and i’m on the road again
and it’s going to take some time, this time
