when i was young my mamma told me
she said child take your time
don’t fall in love too quickly
before you know the one
she held me round the shoulders
in a voice so soft and kind
she said love can make you happy
and love can rob you blind
here in california fruit hangs heavy on the vines
there’s no gold i thought i’d warn you
and the hills turn brown in the summertime
now i will learn to love you
but i can’t say when
this morning we were strangers
and tonight we’re only friends
i’ll take the time to know you
i’ll take the time to see
there’s nothing i won’t show you
if you take your time with me
here in california fruit hangs heavy on the vines
there’s no gold i thought i’d warn you
and the hills turn brown in the summertime
solo
there’s a old familiar story
an old familiar rhyme
to everything there is a season
to every purpose there’s a time
a time to love and come together
a time when love longs for air ??
a time for questions we can’t answer
though we ask them just the same
here in california fruit hangs heavy on the vines
there’s no gold i thought i’d warn you
and the hills turn brown in the summertime
