Front porch in OctoberTime's a'changing with the leavesSlide:Granddad sipping coffee blackHe ain't got no place to beLife makes sense in a rocking chairSwaying to the stories of a man who's seen some things
Slide:He'd say, "Boy, slow your roll down'Cause I was once your ageI tried like hell to hurry life upI couldn't ever stand to waitWhen you're 15 going on 53The future always feels like a million miles away
Slide:Take a lesson from the whiskeyA little wisdom from the wineYou can't rush real love or trustAnd a good friend's hard to findSo slow it down, drink it up80 years really ain't that much to findGood things take time."
Slide:He'd say, "Boy, don't get hung upOn the ones that got awayThe only hearts that find true loveAre the hearts that learn to breakOne day you're gonna look back and laughAnd thank the good Lord for the one that was worth the wait
Slide:Take a lesson from the whiskeyA little wisdom from the wineYou can't rush real love or trustAnd a good friend's hard to findSo slow it down, drink it up80 years really ain't that much to findGood things take time."
Slide:They take time
Slide:Man, it feels like yesterdayI was sitting here with youSeeing your empty rocking chairStill breaks my heart in twoI remember every word you saidLike a soundtrack in the back of my headAnd now, I know that every word was trueAnd after all these years I still hear you
Slide:"Take a lesson from the whiskeyA little wisdom from the wineYou can't rush real love or trustAnd a good friend's hard to findSo slow it down, drink it up80 years really ain't that much to findGood thingsYou findGood things take timeSo, take your time."
