Bloom

May is when I fell for you and honestly
I told myself it happened all too soon

But August came around and baby honestly
All my fears were louder than my truth

But I told you, "You don't know what you're getting into,"
And I told you that he tore my heart up in two, not ready for you

But you say, "If you fear the dark then you won't see the stars
Keep your heart locked up, so what? You won't go far,"
True North is somewhere that I'm still finding out
Moody everywhere I go, I'm up and down

So just bloom
Bloom, my love
It's okay to
Don't be afraid
You late bloomer

Finally it's time to be alright with me
Focused on myself I'll spend some time on me
I wanna be with you, yeah baby, selfishly
So I'mma take my time
So I can love you right

But I told you, "You don't know what you're getting into" (I don't know why...)
And I told you, "Take it slow, I'm not ready for you,"
For you, oh

But you say, "If you fear the dark then you won't see the stars
Keep your heart locked up, so what? You won't go far,"
True North is somewhere that I'm still finding out
Moody everywhere I go, I'm up and down

So just bloom
Bloom, my love
It's okay to
Don't be afraid
You late bloomer

To my darling daughter, Ellen
You are so wonderful, talented, and amazing
You're beautiful inside and out
You sing like an angel...
And I'm so proud of you
I love you so much, and so does God...
And as long as you believe in Him and have faith, He'll always be with you
And we're proud of you

But I told you, "You don't know what you're getting into,"
And I told you that you're still the one that I choose
It's you...
