I know the reason
You turn your back
On things that you don't wanna hear.
I know this feelin'
I get from you
When you try to act so sincere.

But I don't know
What's making you behave this way.
I'm gonna go,
You never hear a word I say.
You better learn to

Take a little time
To show me that you care for me.
Take a little time
To show me you're still there for me.

I know the danger,
You're holding all the cards
Because you think I'll wait.
You're like a stranger,
You better show your hand
Before it gets too late.

But I don't know
What's making you behave this way.
I'm gonna go,
I might as well just walk away,
If you don't learn to

Take a little time
To show me that you care for me.
You gotta take a little time
To show me you're still there for me.
You better take a little time
To show me what's been going on.
It's been like this for much too long.
Take a little time.

Don't hand me all these lines.
My eyes are open wide now.
Don't give me all your lies.
I'm gettin' much too wise for you.
Take a little time.
Yeah.

But I don't know
What's making you behave this way.
You never hear a word I say.
I might as well just walk away,
If you don't learn to

Take a little time
To show me that you care for me.
You better take a little time
To show me you're still there for me.
You gotta take a little time
To show me what's been going on.
It's been like this for much too long.
Take a little time.
You gotta take a little time.

I'm tellin' you,
You gotta take a little,
Take a little time.
Take a little time.
Take a little,
Take a little time.

You gotta take a little,
Take a little,
You gotta take a little,
Take a little time.

I'm tellin' you.
Take a little,
Take a little time.

Take a little,
Take a little time.
