Love In Time - Esperanza Spalding

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.
