lyrics

This is your soul speaking, hear me out
You can not listen if you shout, shout, shout
Relax a while, try on a smile and be silent

This is your soul, I got news for you, you’ll
Miss out on life if you just do, do, do
Sit down a while, try on a smile and be idle

Chrous:
Take a time out in your hide out
Settle down, calm down and doze
Take a time out in your hide out
Rose is a rose is a rose

This is your captain speaking, keep your seat
Enjoy your heart, feel it beat, beat, beat
For hours now we won’t allow any trouble

This is your captain again, be aware
Best thing to do now is to stare, stare, stare
For hours now we’ll float around in a bubble

Chorus:
Take a time out in your hide out
Turn off your phone and read prose
Take a time out in your hide out
See, hear and feel with your nose

Take a time out in your hide out
Lie on your porch, twist your toes
Take a time out in your hide out
Try to be one with your clothes
