You know it takes a long, long time   You know it takes a long, long time   You love her so and still you know   That you will never want to let her go   Unless you leave her first   Then you come out on top   But, still there's just one thing   You haven't got.      Peace of mind   Like when you treated her kind   It's hard to face that open space.      You know it takes a long, long time   You know it takes a long, long time   When first you gave and shared your soul   Showed her all those things that take their toll   She knows your weak spot   But, she still gets you hot   So you do it again   Reveal what lies within.      And go for peace of mind   Like when you treated her kind   It's hard to face that open space.      You're lookin' for peace of mind   Anywhere you can find   Still searchin' for peace of mind.      You know it takes a long, long time   You know it takes a long, long time.
