The Smiths - These Things Take Time lyrics

Your rating:

you took me behind a dis-used railway line
     and you said "I know a place we can go
     where we are not known"
     and then you gave me something that I won't forget too soon
     but I can't believe that you'd ever care
     and this is why you'll never care
     but these things take time
     and I know that I'm the most inept
     that ever stepped

     I'm spellbound, but a woman divides
     and the hills are alive with celibate cries
     but you know where you came from, you know where
     you're going and you know where you belong
     you said I was ill, and you were not wrong
     but I can't believe that you'd ever care
     and so, you never cared
     but these things take time
     and I know that I'm
     the most inept
     that ever stepped

     Oh the alcoholic afternoons
     when we sat in your room
     they meant more to me
     than any living thing on earth
     they had more worth
     than any living thing on earth

     vivid and in your prime
     you will leave me behind
     you will leave me behind
