Whispers fell off of your lips for a while
Your words elongated by the strength of your smile
In the wake of belonging I see how you shine,
As I listened to words that came out of your mind,
But slow, slow down your words,
I'll be right beside you.
Do not be deferred,
the future is not resolute,
Paint every Rembrandt that I need to see,
Learn from your past but forget history,
Recreate moments you let yourself down,
But live for the ones where it all turns around
No one told you to pick yourself up,
while the waves toppled you to the ground,
So just before you think you've had enough,
Look towards me and you'll be found.
But slow, slow down your words,
I'll be right beside you.
Do not be deferred,
the future is not resolute,
Keep me from crashing, your arms open wide
Embraced while the summer eternal arrived,
Hold me while we rest in purgatory,
Grasping the pen that will write our story, but
Slow, slow down your words,
I'll be right beside you.
Do not be deferred,
the future is not resolute.
