Shawn Phillips - It Takes No Time lyrics

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
