Glen Phillips It Takes Time lyrics

Water's getting deeper
And I can't feel my feet
I keep on bailing buckets
But it flows right back to me

And everything is in its place
The children are asleep
But the water's getting deeper
And I can't feel my feet

How am I gonna make time?
Well, this is gonna take time
How am I gonna make time?

Everything seems different
And colors all look strange
Light comes down in shafts here
Underneath the waves

And everything is put away
And the children are asleep
But the water's getting deeper
And I can't feel my feet


How am I gonna make time?
Well, this is gonna take time
How am I gonna make time?

I am provider
But providence has been swayed
And by design
Nothing is ever the same

I thought that time
Had only one way to go
Learned how to swim
But not to breathe underwater

How am I gonna make time?
Well, this is gonna take time
How am I gonna make time?

I can't feel my feet
I can't feel my feet
