I was born in the doorway
I felt the warmth of love from my mother's arms
She loved my father completely
We tore apart like a body in a crashed car
Oh, how the years they moved me
Into places that I had never known
And, how I learned so quickly
You want to make it in life, you just don't do it alone
Oh not at all
I don't want to rush you
I don't want to rush you, no
No, no, no
Just take your time
Let's pack our things and hurry
Our lives are now and there only passing by
You say; "My love, don't worry
This world will never conquer you and I."
Oh no, it won't.
I'm reveling upon my six string
Oh and the crowds got their hands in the clouds
I tell my mother don't worry
Because your boy is going to make you proud
She says, "Oh, I know you will."
I don't want to rush you
I don't want to rush you, no
No, no, no
Just take your time
I don't want to rush you
I don't want to rush you, no
No, no, no
Just take your time
We're getting older and still I wonder
Are we learning from our mistakes?
Will our children have homes
To live in if we continue this way?
She said that
"I just want to hold you
Come on and let me hold you
Until everything that's bad has blown away."
Oh, but
I don't want to rush you
I don't want to rush you, no
No, no, no
Just take your time
I don't want to rush you
I don't want to rush you, no
No, no, no
Just take your time
