The Way We Operate

Take your time
 Take it slow
 You've got to hold on to what you know
 Breathe in now and let it go
 If you live too fast you'll find
 Your whole life has passed you by
 And my whole world is upside down
 I need to get my feet back on the ground
 This the way we've learned to operate
 Whoa, whoa
 So take your time
 And don't hesitate
 To let it all out
 All we need is a little direction
 A pinch of affection
 Goes a long way in this line
 So take your time
 And take it slow
 We can make it out alive
 We get built up
 Like crashing tidal waves
 Against the shore line
 We're not safe
 But we'll be alright
 And when we're lost
 We're sure we'll be found
 We're making our back way around
 Now we're homebound
 Don't say that this is the end
 We'll make it
 Just pray that it all depends
 On how we take it
 This the way we've learned to operate
 Whoa, whoa
 So take your time
 And don't hesitate
 To let it all out
 All we need is a little direction
 A pinch of affection
 Goes a long way in this line
 So take your time
 And take it slow
 We can make it out alive
 Alive
