"Il faut du temps", also known under the full title "Il faut du temps (Je me battrai pour ça)" (; "It takes time (I will fight for that)"), was the entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2002, performed in French by Sandrine François. The song was co-written by French singer Patrick Bruel, and produced by Erick Benzi.
The song was also released in English under the title "After the Rain".
The song is an upbeat ballad in which Sandrine François explains that everything good in life takes time, and that she is prepared to fight to achieve her goals. The composition has been compared to the likes of ballads performed by Celine Dion, pointing to the fact that Erick Benzi, the song's producer, is responsible for producing many of Dion's songs and hits.
The full song is nearly four minutes long, but was shortened to abide by Eurovision rules. The song was performed seventeenth on the night, following 's Sergio & The Ladies with "Sister" and preceding 's Corinna May with "I Can't Live Without Music". At the close of voting, it had received 104 points, placing 5th in a field of 24.
In 2015 The Independent's Rachael Pells placed the song among a list of 10 songs that should've won the contest, but didn't.
It was succeeded as French representative at the 2003 contest by Louisa Baïleche with "Monts et merveilles".
All songs were produced by Erick Benzi.
