Taking my time
Lord knows I ain't in no hurry
Writing my rhyme
And feeling a little surly
And wouldn't you know
Here comes my lady for me

She's taken my days
And I've given her all my nights
She's changing my ways
As only a woman might
She's been so true
And I've been feeling alright

And now you've come to fill my hours again
I've been waiting for you
How I do adore you
Oh, my lovely little one

Used to be I
Was hopelessly wanton gipsy
Carelessly high
And not really sure of nothin'
I've been so blue
But now I'm feeling alright

It seems I've been forever here and gone
'Cause I was always reeling
With a vague uneasy feeling
Of maybe something left undone

But now I'm just
Taking my time
And living it day by day
Resting my mind
And liking it more that way
And wouldn't you know
Here comes my lady for me
