Give It Time

Hoops' song 'Give It Time' is a reflective and soothing exploration of the passage of time and the anticipation of future happiness. The lyrics convey a sense of patience and hope, suggesting that with time, everything will fall into place. The opening lines, 'Give it time and I’ll be / Just where I used to be,' evoke a longing for a return to a simpler, happier state, where the days pass peacefully and love is a constant companion. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, which is imbued with a sense of calm and reassurance.

The recurring question, 'Where does time go?' reflects a universal curiosity and perhaps a slight bewilderment at the fleeting nature of time. This line captures the essence of the song's contemplative mood, as the singer ponders the swift passage of moments and the changes they bring. The phrase 'Easy come, easy go' further emphasizes the transient nature of life and experiences, suggesting a philosophical acceptance of life's ebb and flow.

In the latter part of the song, the lyrics 'Raise my glass raise my clouds / Hunger now to receive' introduce a sense of celebration and anticipation. The imagery of raising a glass and clouds suggests a toast to the future and the dreams yet to be realized. The song concludes with a hopeful note, 'Give it time it will all / Happen soon,' reinforcing the theme of patience and the belief that good things are on the horizon. Hoops' dreamy, lo-fi sound complements the lyrics perfectly, creating a serene and introspective listening experience.
