It Takes No Time - Shawn Phillips

It takes no time to know when one is lonely

It takes no time to know when you’re not home,

It takes no time to know that you’re not answering your phone to me

It takes no time to know that you’re not home

It takes no fool to know when love is over

It takes no fool to know that you don’t care

It takes no fool to know that it’s beyond repair now

And baby I ain’t no fool, you know I really cared

Takin' my time gettin' over your lovin'

And I’m takin' my time gettin' over your love

Takin' my time gettin' over your lovin'

And I’m takin' my time gettin' over your love

As days go by, my life is growing shorter

As life goes on my days are growing long

And in the night, I spend the hours thinking of the time I spent with you

The time we both would call our summer song

And summer songs are meant to be sung by all the people in love

And I think I’ve found someone

To carry on my summer song with me again

It takes no fool to know when one is loving

It takes no fool to know when one is loved

And there’s a star, hung so high, hanging up above me

And once again, I know I’m gonna ride that star

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love

Ridin' on a star, on a wave of perfection

And I’m ridin' on a star on a wave of your love
