Ever So Slowly
She crossed the street ever so slowly
To count the steps that it took to get to the other side
She said "fifteen"
"I disagree; your toes had barely even touched the curb"
Well, she came right back and said "Don't be so pessimistic
If you had an inch left in this world, you know I'd let you take it"
My hand's been shaking since the first day we met
They are wrapped around the small of your back to hold you close
So you don't run away and to paint a picture for this guitar to play
Across these storefronts, the neon light: they illuminate the sidewalks that we took to get home
"One, two, three..." Don't do this to me
"Can't we just enjoy the fact that we're all alone?"
"Haven't you heard that chivalry was killed by lies, and deceit
And all the crazy things this world has become?"
My hand's been shaking since the first day we met
They are wrapped around the small of your back to hold you close
So you don't run away and to paint a picture for this guitar to play
To count the steps that it took to get to the other side
She said "fifteen"
"I disagree; your toes had barely even touched the curb"
Well, she came right back and said "Don't be so pessimistic
If you had an inch left in this world, you know I'd let you take it"
My hand's been shaking since the first day we met
They are wrapped around the small of your back to hold you close
So you don't run away and to paint a picture for this guitar to play
Across these storefronts, the neon light: they illuminate the sidewalks that we took to get home
"One, two, three..." Don't do this to me
"Can't we just enjoy the fact that we're all alone?"
"Haven't you heard that chivalry was killed by lies, and deceit
And all the crazy things this world has become?"
My hand's been shaking since the first day we met
They are wrapped around the small of your back to hold you close
So you don't run away and to paint a picture for this guitar to play
