Back off baby
Don't lean too hard
I'll come 'round when I'm ready
I ain't finished my playing 'round
Don't want to go steady

[Chorus:]
You gotta give me time
Give me time give me time
You gotta give me time
Give me time give me time

The feeling in me ain't the same as yours
I'm still first-class flying
You've gotta wait till I reach the ground
No need to be lying

[Chorus]

To think it over

Don't try so hard
Don't spoil your chance
Don't try so hard
Don't spoil your chance

[Verse 1]

[Chorus]
To think it over

Give me time
Give me time give me time
You gotta give time
Give me time give me time

[Repeat]
