Lyrics James Taylor

James Taylor

Taking It In

Morning, sing me a song

Afternoon, bring it along

Nighttime, show me a friend

Say it again

Send a good dream my way

Wednesday, feeling just fine

I got to say time on my hands

Friday, look at them run

Show me some fun

Taking the sunshine in

God knows you've got to give yourself

Time to think these days

Lord knows you've got to take enough

Time to look both ways

The pieces fly by so quickly now

Laura, look at you walk

I swear you've got eyes in my head

I'd like to follow you down

Show you around

Borrow the crown you wear

Bacon, lie on the plate

Two black-eyed peas wait on the side

Gravy chicken and rice

Isn't it nice

Tell me the price of the food

What happens when the answers they give you

Aren't good enough

What happens when it rains for eight days

On your week off

You know you can't buy tomorrow, no

It's all a matter of opening up your eyes

And looking around 'cause it's all there, it's all there

I said taking the sunshine in
