Amy Grant - Takes A Little Time Lyrics
[Chorus:]
It takes a little time sometimes
To get your feet back on the ground
It takes a little time sometimes
To get the Titanic turned back around
But baby you're not going down
It takes more than you've got right now
Give it, give it time
What's this walking through my door
I know I've seen the look before
Sometimes on faces in the street
And sometimes in the mirror looking back at me
You can't fix this pain with money
You can't rush a weary soul
But it don't take a lot to know
[Chorus]
Well it may not be over by morning
But Rome wasn't built in a day
You can name that thing a thousand times
And It won't make it go away
Let me put my arms around you
And hold you while you weep
We've been talking and you know what, I'm sick of this talk
And it's nothing that won't keep
[Chorus]
You can't fix this pain with money
You can't rush a weary soul
You can't sweep it under the rug now honey
But it don't take a lot to know
[Chorus]

Amy Grant Takes A Little Time Comments
She the reason why I went into music
anybody listening in 2019? ❤
The song encourages us to WAIT. The turn-a-round process might take longer than expected but it will turn around (turn out) for your good.
Just picture the Titanic and how fast it was going. The captain would have to slow the ship down to a reasonable speed for it to turn around.
Remember, the path we choose could be disastrous, BUT with God (divine) intervention we shall be saved!!!
This is a perfect message from God!!!
It takes time BUT it will be AWESOME!!
GIVE IT TIME!!!
wow - I didn't think this song was already 22-years-old! But it's such a great song nonetheless!
The song played in my head today. It has beena long while since I listened to it. I have loved this song from when I was 10.
This song was my escape from hard times I was going through back in 2017 thank this song for helping me get back on my feet
Gosh, what a beauty!
I can't believe this song doesn't have millions of views.
So the camera takes pictures that change to show the present and then the future. I bet if we could see that last photo, Vince would be in it with her!!!
Holds true to life. Gods got you ;) even when you think he dont. Just "takes a lil time"
No boob transplant or any plastic surgery.. just natural BEAUTY and pure talent.
This video l like cause you can look.at it from all sorts of angles and perspectives. It reminds me of going to an amusement park and looking in one of those funny.mirrors is that me is that us.
great voice - she looks v jewish
She is not Jewish.
I love this song....still going 2019
Looking forward to see Amy Grant in concert August 9 2019
The Lord put this song in my spirit this afternoon ...
He knew what I needed because I was wrestling ... I'm thankful He knows what we need and how to speak to us in a way we can understand even if it's through a song ...
Makes me nostalgic for the New York City of my youth. The glimpse of the Twin Towers at the end made me gasp.
WOW - THIS ONLY HAS 424,00 HITS WHILE BABY BABY HAS 8 MILLION? THAT'S NUTS. THIS IS SUPERB! I GUESS SENTIMENTALITY ALLIED TO A GENERIC SYNTHESIZER TRACK DRAWS IN THE MASSES.

I love you Amy Grant! You have a great personality and your songs are encouraging.
Amy Grant brings peace to a troubled world. I'm in a bad situation right now. I'm in a very tense living situation where I am worried my dad might hit me. I financially can't leave home. Don't know where else to go, a shelter??? It hasn't happened yet, but I feel like sooner or later something will happen if I don't get away from here!!! If you have any idea of what I could do, I welcome what you have to say.
Easily one of the world's most naturally beautiful female of all times
I have had a crush on amy 4 a long tme
Dannnnggg classic. Wow.
I love amy
i get a colbie collait vibe from her.
LOL... well, if anything Amy influenced Colbie :)
song of hope...baby\\\love people like you
Love this song 🎵🎶🎧🎤🎤🎸🎹🎸
You've gotta love Amy Grant
That's a piece of my childhood here in Brazil, when i heard it everyday in a cd player and my only music disc
I wonder if she actually prays and reads her bible?
I wonder if she's the "real deal" and truly loves the Lord?
It seems that she would be more pro active in leading people
to the truth. Not just through music but is she involved in a mission
to tell people about *salvation* and the fact that there is more to this life
then just "living peacefully and enjoying God's favor?"...I mean, we have *real*
*work to do on this earth as Believers!* Amy's influence is huge! Why isn't she doing
more to bring people to Christ? She's nice and all but she's a "Pop singer" and has enjoyed the benefits of that life...I love her. I grew up on her and I have all of her CD's but the price for life is higher now and I'm starting to "rethink" all of these successful "personalities" in Christian music. I feel convicted about that. People need help, prayer, influence, and someone standing up for Jesus and the truth! I think I'm pretty much over her ...
She have been a huge influence with her music and life. She is not a preacher, but she have been blessed many like me through all of these years. Dont be a judge !
Good for you. What about others who haven't been as fortunate?
*"Love not the world neither the things in the world.*
*if any man loves the world then the love of the Father is not in him;*
*for all that is in the world, the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and the*
*pride of life, is not of the Father but of the world; and the world and it desires will pass away, but the one who abides in the Lord will live forever"* 1 John 2:15 I've looked in to Mrs Grant a little more deeply, than your ordinary "idol worshiping fan" and like I said, I'm over her. In my opinion, she is wrapped up in the world and has been for a very long time...It's not judging, it's just calling it like I see it...
@lorettalynn Davis Ahhh.... I gotcha. You have been criticized her with bad comments and heavy words; but you can talk about yourself ..I gotcha. You criticized her with bad comments and heavy words; but you can talk about yourself ...someone seeking to be interviewed , and to get famous. You want to be the blogger of the digital Gardens of Lord.

You should probably "double your dosage" on whatever you're taking because I don't understand a word of what you're saying...
Als je mensen model wil laten staan voor je modelbureau dan moet je het wel slim aanpakken
WTC😭
Love the 80s and 90s music!!!! Back when music made sense and the world made sense
O love this sonho...
Sorry, I love this song
I was in a funeral home grieving when this song came over the in house radio system. The counselor stopped talking and told me to listen to it. “Takes a little time to get the Titanic turned back around.”
Thanks, Amy!
Amy Grant, Luciferian.
Why you say that? Because she sings a few secular-like songs?
Don be a stupid and cruel person! May God heal your sad heart.
Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels.2 Timothy 2;23 / Proverbs 6 says : 16 There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
used to listen to this Praise TV a lot...good memories!
why is this song in ,my head in 2017 at work over night engineer..
it's just occured to me that amy is really rod stewart in drag like michael jackson and his tranee blister damit janet are one in the same en titty
Lol this is just "the joker" by Steve miller
You must be hearing an audible illusion, I know they exist and formed by the Prince of the Air.
great music video and song
suddenly miss this song so much. thanks God we have youtube.haha
country singers rock.🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I hear this in grocery stores a lot.
can't believe this song is so old! feels like I saw the video only a few years ago! !
reminds me of the 90's when I was a teenager such a simple time pre 9-11-01 love the shots of the original world trade center miss that time
Beautiful guitar :)
Listen to Zahara's 'Inameva...'
But these songs are not similar in any way. What ur point?
Good tunes,i like em!😃
great song
why is this song planted in my subconscious
Dave Stites because amy rules 😂
@George Alberto Ramirez Sure but rules what? Your 6 inch ruler trying to be a yardstick? Oops, not an appropriate joke under an Amy Winehouse video.
@SuperPutzPutz numbnuts lol
Ty Amy . I'm a believer . God bless Amy grant , sister
this song has saved my life. I think the meaning behind the pictures being taken is that when you have your picture taken , you always want it to look good and be flattering but these pics are showing what's under the surface - like how the mother daughter one,they look cute now but when the daughter becomes a teen it's going to look different. and this song is about how you can't make some problems instantly go away, it can take some time to get back on your feet again. This is one of my all time favorite songs. Amy sings from the heart.
I liked your comment a lot.
nitopontocom Thank you. We need more people in the world right now like Amy Grant to calm us down. I don't need to get worked up and stressed out anymore than I already am!!!
Read Joyce Meyer's book called Overload - all about stress
she sang this song on a tv special for christhoper reeves foundation amy looked and sounded so good live im still in love with her 25 years later !!
MUITO BOM,
forgot about this..has a sheryl crow vibe to it
Mr. Chip Amy Grant (80’s) has been around long before Sheryl Crow (2000’s)
I worked at a Wawa in the late 90s. This song was always playing on their playlist. Whenever I hear it I want to go into berserk mode and destroy everything in my path.
+Kevin Montgomery You need to take a little time!
Good piece, a first I've heard. I grew into Amy in the early 90's she's good!
❤❤❤
I heard this song on the radio while in Dollar General store after not hearing it in a long time and my ears perked up and looked it up tonight! I agree they did music videos much better in the 90s, I love Amy Grant and her music is as good now as it was then! Thanks to those here that mentioned the twin towers 9/11 reference, kinda erie considering the anniversary of 9/11 is coming up in 5 days.... I was wondering though, what's the meaning behind the pictures changing and then burning up? Like glimpses into the future kind of thing? Interested to hear others thoughts!
+Heather Barth It's easy to read into that stuff in retrospect. It's like how you can fold a twenty dollar bill a certain way and it just so happens to look like the towers burning. Personally, I just think it's too easy to find stuff when you're looking for it and when it comes to something like 9/11, everyone wants an explanation.
I choose not to think about the horrible things when I'm listening to someone who was doing her level best to make the world a nicer place.
Good song
1. I think the meaning behind the pictures changing is to remind us that we are not stuck in time like in a picture. It may feel like that at times, but go back and look at some of your old pictures and consider all that has changed. You can expect the future to do the same, so if you feel like you are stuck and life is not changing, give yourself a little time.
2. I think the picture burning up, which I take happened to everyone that was handed a picture, is to signify that you have to live in the moment. Our pictures of our past are in the past. The pictures in the video of people's future are for our amusement. What matters is right now. Don't freeze like in those pictures.
I so love this
A lot of truth to this song as well
What building is she on?
+ehrldawg 346 Broadway at Leonard Street, New York City
No doubt this is at least partially about her divorce..................she was splitting from Gary Chapman around this time.
She's a bad ass
I spent my late teens and twenties hanging in Washington Square Park... This is how I will always remember it... Oh, and I've been listening to Amy Grant even longer!
Why I love YouTube / the 90's
total hits
Is Markith a male or female name? Never heard it before ..
you should be ashamed of yourself , that's not nice...don't be jealous!!!!!!!!!!!
She is terrible, her music is terrible, this song is fucking terrible.
terrible?? do you have any songs to get some one came in to Their belong??? do you?? amy grant is the first singer that touch my heart...take me form dark long journey..his songs and his lyric is take meaning in my live...his song come form heaven and i thing his angels...so just take u r ass in dust bin and put your brain too....
bless u. my friend.
VPHollow Seriously?! Then why are you even here, except to bash her!?!!? Looks like at least 1,000 disagree. And, the millions of people who have her bought her multi-platinum albums!!!
Everyone - don't get angry at VP's destructive criticism, he is obviously working for satan who wants to feed off our negative emotions like flies buzzing around PigPen in the Charlie Brown comics.
Amazing song...never get tired listening to it...
Its been a long time since I've heard this song
Oh yeah...!
so true!
Love how it reminds Us of New Yoek City pre 911 look into the background and you will see the original WTC towers. Kind of interesting how the song reflects the Titanic and in the same sense the WTC towers can be seen as well.
It's because the 9/11 attacks were an inside job and Amy Grant was the mastermind behind it!
lol, just kidding.
Yes but it's a bad example because they didn't actually get the Titanic turned around in time.
And don't even try to make the case that she isn't talking about the ship.
When she says Titanic, she is referring to when we have a problem, it Titanic (BIG PROBLEM) But when we turn to GOD, its a small problem to GOD.
Will Dineen the song encourages us to WAIT. The turn-a-round process might take longer than expected but it will turn around (turn out) for your good.
Just picture the Titanic and how fast it was going. The captain would have to slow the ship down to a reasonable speed for it to turn around.
Remember, the path we choose could be disastrous, BUT with God (divine) intervention we shall be saved!!!
what happened to music like this? we need to go back to the 90's where music was music and not crappy auto tune, i mean seriously have you heard that new britney spears song for example, its all autotune and elevator music, what happened to music? :'(
Violent video games, etc. that kill zombies, vampires etc. Kids get a mindset where they want to do nothing but see blood. God will not bless these kids come adults with writing a song or being skilled with an instrument like before the 90s. And liking zombies etc is embracing the darkness and prevents light coming out in these musician wannebees. If we stop this crap we should get some better music back someday some decade.
LOVE Amy Grant think ALL her music is beautiful ...this song encouraged me after brutal divorce BUT do NOT get this video at all
This is perhaps her best song.
And it did take quite some time.
I remember when this song came out, my parents were going through a nasty divorce, I was 7 years old I asked my mom what does it mean to say "to get your feet back on the ground" she replied "sort of what your father is going through right now, he is trying to get his feet back on the ground. I understood the meaning instantly. My father made a lot of mistakes but did end up with his feet back on the ground. <3 this song
I swear god after all these years I thought this song was sung by Shania Twain until I click this video..now I know..
not true
Amy Grant
Amy....You´re very simple and original! ´ve been blessed by your music!
I have always loved Amy Grant. Such a gracious singer.
didn't know she did this song...gotta do some research...love faith
the 90's had the best music so far...in my opinion...
Tania while I prefer the 80s, all decades have their share of excellent songs.
This is definitely one of them.
they should continue PopUp Video's with todays artists...
have you heard her song "somewhere down the road"? that one helps a lot too :)
Blockbuster brought me here.
love the video. shame the 90s didnt teach the 00s and 10s how a music video should be done.
