I took time for my job
I took time for my songs
What was wrong, I took time to change it
I took time, it takes time, to try
It's so rare when it works, huh?
It's so rare that when it works, well, you have to
Strike while the iron is hot
Do it while it's hot
Because hell, it's not failing
It's not doing everything to try

So, I did everything, everything
Until I suffocate, suffocate
Ah, yeah, I did everything, everything, there
And I would like to breathe, breathe

I remember this appointment made
The promise of a break, a respite
Rest for my mind
Like a bubble in the middle of the noise
In the middle of the fury
But somewhere, a corner of paradise
Waited for me like a blank sheet
A blank sheet

And there
In the middle of the world
For life to respond
We took the time
And there (and there, and there, and there)
In the middle of the world (and there, and there, and there)
To lengthen the seconds (and there, and there, and there)
We took the time

I made an appointment with the doctor, the hairdresser, the vet
Yesterday, I turned off very late, today, I got up early
I took my shower, I got upset
I took the road, my stuff
I took the train, the taxi, I took too much, I paid dearly
I took my son by the hand for his party and his tournament
I took courage with both hands, the headache, it's for me
I took my buried doubts under the t-shirts in my suitcase
I took the tour bus in an atmosphere that often, I idealize
I fell behind in my day
In my schedule, in my sleep
I got ahead on fatigue
But not really on waking up
I took a pace, a cadence, a haunting rhythm
But it's true, I haven't taken the time for a long time

I remember this appointment made
The promise of a break, a respite
Rest for my mind
Like a bubble in the middle of the noise
In the middle of the fury
But somewhere, a corner of paradise
Waited for me like a blank sheet
A blank sheet

And there
In the middle of the world
For life to respond
We took the time
And there (and there, and there, and there)
In the middle of the world (and there, and there, and there)
To lengthen the seconds (and there, and there, and there)
We took the time

And there (and there, and there, and there)
In the middle of the world (and there, and there, and there)
For life to respond (and there, and there, and there)
We took the time
And there (and there, and there, and there)
In the middle of the world (and there, and there, and there)
To lengthen the seconds (and there, and there, and there)
We took the time

(There)
We took the time
(The seconds)
We took the time

(And there)
In the middle of the world (and there, and there, and there)
For life to respond (and there, and there, and there)
We took the time
And there (and there, and there, and there)
In the middle of the world (and there, and there, and there)
To lengthen the seconds (and there, and there, and there)
We took the time
