Love Takes Time (Live at the Tatou Club 1990) - Mariah Carey

Lyrics by：Mariah Carey/Ben Margulies

Composed by：Mariah Carey/Ben Margulies

I had it all but I let it slip away

Couldn't see I treated you wrong

Now I wander around

Feeling down and cold

Trying to believe that you're gone

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

Because love takes time

I don't wanna be here

I don't wanna be here alone

Losing my mind

From this hollow in my heart

Suddenly I'm so incomplete

Lord I need you now

Tell me how to stop the rain

Tears are falling down endlessly

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

Because love takes time

I don't wanna be here

I don't wanna be here alone

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

Love takes time

To heal when you're hurting so much

Couldn't see that I was so blind to let you go

I can't escape the pain inside

Because love takes time

I don't wanna be here

I don't wanna be here alone
