You know it takes
  a long, long time
  You know it takes
  a long, long time
  You love her so
  and still you know
  That you will never
  want to let her go
  Unless you leave her first
  Then you come out on top
  But, still
  there's just one thing
  You haven't got.
    Peace of mind
  Like when you treated her kind
  It's hard to face
  that open space.
    You know it takes
  a long, long time
  You know it takes
  a long, long time
  When first you gave
  and shared your soul
  Showed her all those things
  that take their toll
  She knows your weak spot
  But, she still gets you hot
  So you do it again
  Reveal what lies within.
    And go for peace of mind
  Like when you treated her kind
  It's hard to face
  that open space.
    You're lookin' for
  peace of mind
  Anywhere you can find
  Still searchin' for
  peace of mind.
    You know it takes
  a long, long time
  You know it takes
  a long, long time.
