Esperanza Spalding Love In Time
Wait a little while
We can't rush what belongs
To the heavens above
Like the course of our love without time
We'll never see what's behind
This elusive romance
Could be two who'll prove love is more than
Mere chance
Let's wait a little while
And find out why we're waiting
Amidst those parading
Desir like a torch fire
Amidst those who scramble
For love all a flutter
When true love is something subtler
We'll create if we just wait...
We can't rush a happy ending
That's not in our dstiny's plan
Sweet this seems we can't see
The grand scheme of our lives
Which really are what we'd share
If this romance is true
So take time to live yours
I will too while we
Wait a little while and be sure
We're not fooled
By the things we've been schooled
To take as signs that love's arrived
Like charm wit and beauty
Our youth made us seek them
But in truth we don't need them
We're in love, so let's take our time.
