Ferron - Takes A Little Time Lyrics

Send "Takes A Little Time" ringtone to your cell

Sadie's momma was a tanker always bowling her

Down to the ground

And when Sadie got old enough she moved it on

Her freedom was a one way bus to another town

She had a little money, bought a dress and she put it on

And she worked her days in an all night restaurant

It was called believe or not...Anything You Want

There was a woman on the graveyard shift that

Sadie liked a lot

And she even took to coming early just in case

They could have some time

It seemed that anything the graveyard lady wanted

The graveyard lady got

And Sadie decided the difference between them

Was a shadow line

Years would fly before she'd bother to try

To be her own true face

Right now seemed like every thing was sadly stuck in place

Hot town, Toronto, l951

The Spring is doing it's stuff

She sends a letter home to say "I've come undone"

All they say "that's tough"

Another birthday pass her by and she has a dream

One night that she can fly

And she goes to work that day and all she does is cry cry cry

And Sadie finally meet a man who dances a jig

And she follows him down

But don't he turn out to be a little angel of misery

Living quiet in a private dream, protected by a frozen frown

Periodically he looks up and says

"Sadie, what's to become of you and me?"

It's at these times that she holds his head

Half wishing all the while that he's holding her instead

And she finally tells him that and it blows his mind...

Takes a little time, takes a little time, takes a little

Time.

Takes a little time, takes a little time, takes a little

Time.

It's so amazing what you don't find out

When you're dancing!!
