Lyrics

Take Time to Love Me (male version) ©2014
Stanza one- Gotta mow the yard & clean the deck, drop the kids, off to school;

but realize that I'm not done, there's laundry, dinner too.

With all of that, yes it's OK to see about my needs.

Take some time to love on me, that's what my life's gon' be.


Chorus- Take some to love on me, value's written on my chest

no need to have approval, look in the mirror & do my best.

Yes dark days will surely come, but my mission more & more,
gotta take time, time to love me.


Stanza two- Social media now turned off, got a round in of golf,

saw a great deal, I couldn't loose, went & booked myself a cruise.

It took a while but now I see, have fun just for me;

all work no play will kill you soon, not me, watching the moon.


Chorus- Take some to love on me, value's written on my chest

no need to have approval, look in the mirror & do my best.

Yes dark days will surely come, but my mission more & more,

gotta take time, time to love me.

The vocal hook is pretty good. Nice songwriting! I enjoyed the arrangement of piano with drums.

Like the instrument drop.1:49. Nice instrumentation.

The lyrics are the stronger part of the song. The melody is
alright, but one commonly heard.

I like the song, I don't like the vocal but please remember this is personal taste. The song does have potential and the arrangement is good.
