Slow Mornings
Chasing Slow Mornings: A Serenade to Love's Transient Bliss
Lyrics
I didn't know what to say
I was at a loss for words
It didn't matter anyway
My words didn't have significance
Because by the time you rolled in
When you arrived
I was taken far away
I was emotionally distant
You lay me down and said
You placed me down and remarked
Honey, you've been somewhere
You've been through something
I can see it in your eyes
I can sense it in your gaze
Won't you take me there
Take me to that place
I know you told me that you ain't going anywhere fast
You assured me you're not rushing
You're here to stay, I know we'll make it last
We'll endure and make it endure
But by the time I'd come down
But when I descended
You'd already gone
You had already left
I remember the way that your lips, they tasted just like the sea
Recollection of your lips, reminiscent of the sea
when the morning came round, you'd lay down and wait for me
In the morning, you'd wait for me
And my eyes, to wake up to the sunlight, and your eyes, they were there too
My eyes would meet sunlight, and yours too
I'd hold on to you, like this world was gonna die
I clung to you as if the world was ending
And I miss the way you make me feel, I could lay down and cry
I long for the emotions you evoke, even to cry
For flat whites and butterflies, high tide and blue skies
Nostalgia for simple pleasures and nature
But all that I want, are slow mornings with you
Yearning for unhurried mornings with you
I don't want to be rude, but I hope you miss your flight
I hope you miss your flight without intending to be impolite
Said you gotta go home, but this was home tonight
This place feels like home tonight
I still find your hair tangled up in my clothes
Your presence lingers in my belongings
Along with all the written love notes
Remnants of affection in written notes
I know you told me that you ain't going anywhere fast
You assured me you're not rushing
You're here to stay, I know we'll make it last
We'll endure and make it endure
But by the time I'd come down
But when I descended
You'd already gone
You had already left
I remember the way that your lips, they tasted just like the sea
Recollection of your lips, reminiscent of the sea
when the morning came round, you'd lay down and wait for me
In the morning, you'd wait for me
And my eyes, to wake up to the sunlight, and your eyes, they were there too
My eyes would meet sunlight, and yours too
I'd hold on to you, like this world was gonna die
I clung to you as if the world was ending
And I miss the way you make me feel, I could lay down and cry
I long for the emotions you evoke, even to cry
For flat whites and butterflies, high tide and blue skies
Nostalgia for simple pleasures and nature
But all that I want, are slow mornings with you
Yearning for unhurried mornings with you
