Everything Takes Time (Himig Handog P-Pop Love song 2014)

LSS mode on! I can't stop humming to this song since I heard it last night when I watched the airing of the Himig Handog P-Pop Love Songs performance and awards night on ABS-CBN. I'm not really a music lover but I guess I can relate to this song that's why among all the entries, this became my favorite. More than just the music, being light and easy to my ears, I also like the lyrics and the overall message of the song.  

"Just let it all unfold
Tomorrow can’t be told
Take it slow 
and you’ll get more in time"

---

As I was watched Hazel Faith Dela Cruz perform her own composition, I can't help but feel good. Her song makes me feel good. Everything Takes Time is reassuring me that yes, I'll get there somehow and all I just have to do is to take it slow. 

If you listen carefully to the lyrics, it's not just about lovelife and relationship but for me it also speaks about having patience in whatever you aspire for, may it be your career and biggest dreams in life. This is a great feel good song that reminds us that hey, everything takes time and we should just enjoy the while  we're in between and waiting. :-)  

Everything Takes Time 
by Hazel Faith Dela Cruz

Hey little girl, what’re you up to
Put back that red lipstick
Put away that red dress
You might think it’s alright
But no not tonight
Don’t you know that it’s not time

You gotta wait a little longer
Gotta get a little older
Don’t rush the things that’ll change

Coz everything takes time
As every song needs a rhyme
And I know you want it now
But you’ll get there somehow
Just let it all unfold
Tomorrow can’t be told
Take it slow and you’ll get more in time
Oh oh oh

Hey little girl what’re you up to
Tryin’ to do the things that grown ups do
You know you’re not ready
You’re making a mistake
Patience is a virtue
And things have a rightful place

You gotta wait a little longer
Gotta get a little older
Don’t rush the things that’ll change

Coz everything takes time
As every song needs a rhyme
And I know you want it now
But you’ll get there somehow
Just let it all unfold
Tomorrow can’t be told
Take it slow and you’ll get more in time
Oh oh oh

There are times when it feels like it’s now or never
There are times when it feels like it’s gone forever
But don’t you worry there’s tomorrow
There’s tomorrow

Coz everything takes time
As every song needs a rhyme
And I know you want it now
But you’ll get there somehow
Just let it all unfold
Tomorrow can’t be told
Take it slow and you’ll get more in time

Coz everything takes time
As every song needs a rhyme
And I know you want it now
But you’ll get there somehow
Just let it all unfold
Tomorrow can’t be told
Take it slow and you’ll get more in time
Oh oh oh

FEEL GOOD AFTER LISTENING!
I highly recommend this song when you are feeling anxious for waiting in vain... This is a perfect companion too when 
you are soul searching.
