Takes a Little Time

I felt guilty just being me
Never understood
What other people could see
I just denied
Until I looked inside
Loving myself set me free
I’m just trying to get this right
And I’m worth its I know
Won't give up this fight
Stay strong and keep believing
Oh my god I love this feeling and
I’m gonna be alright
It just takes a little time
Finally, I’ve defined who I am
And silenced doubt in my mind
Sometimes I’m scared
Because I’m in repair
But my dreams will come alive
I’m just trying to do this right
And I’m worth its I know
I won't give up this fight
Stay strong and keep believing
Oh my god I love this feeling and
I’m gonna be alright
It just takes a little time

I’ve made so many mistakes
Worked so hard
Now I have changed
Got through the darkest days
I’m just trying to get this right
I’m worth I know
Won't give up this fight
I’ll stay strong and keep believing
Oh my god I love this feeling
I know I’ll be alright
It just takes a little time
It just takes a little time Yea
It just takes a little time
It just takes a little time

Artist Biography

Americana, Indie, Roots, Singer-Songwriter. On her new EP, Sleep With Ghosts, Jaclyn Reinhart chronicles a chaotic period in her life in the direct, unflinching style that’s made her one of Canada’s most promising new roots rock artists.

For the New Brunswick-based singer-songwriter, the five songs on Sleep With Ghosts represent not only how she’s made a fresh start with her personal life, they also mark a significant creative step forward. After fully embracing an Americana approach to her new material, Jaclyn set about connecting with the right collaborators who could bring it to life. These came to include several notable co-writers and John McLaggan of internationally acclaimed New Brunswick duo Tomato/Tomato, who recorded, mixed and mastered the EP.

“I wrote ‘Takes a Little Time’ after reflecting on how I made it through the tough parts of my journey. I was tired of putting my potential on the back burner and may have been suffering from imposter syndrome. It really does take time to reach your goals, heal and make changes in your life. Growth can be hard but everything will be all right if you believe in yourself to keep moving forward.”
