Please, Take Your Time (feat. The Original Cast of HAZEL: An Extravagant Musical)

Stop!
A moment of silence
As shadows in my mind disperse
I wait
I never wrote down your number
Always known by heart
Your name is just a heart
I admit that I have to submit
Into being uncertain
What version is playing in your head
You're a record spinning my mind
Into devotion
Setting in motion,
But the notion doesn't start
And I'm waiting for that heart
To show on the phone
I know that lingering
And overthinking's
Driving me insane
But if that's the game you wanna play, then...

Please, take your time
Don't even mind
The reason I've been staying up all night
Sure, I'll just wait
I mean why bother anyway?

'Cause if you love me, darling
You would know that I would be
Somewhat crushed down without you
Oh, I don't want to imagine
You being here with me
Darling, don't you see?
That you don't wanna listen is the
Hardest part of all of this for me

By all means, take your time
Writing it out
Then I know, at least you'll spare me words
And I'm worthy a fraction
Of what's actually your thoughts

Woah, I don't wanna read your mind
And find that I'm not mentioned
Not even annotated once
It's verbally abusive
The silence you provide
Curse me with a notion
Some irrational emotions
The unjustified illusion
That I'm still within your heart

But please, take your time
Don't even mind
Apart from being dead, really, I'm fine
I'm just tired of chasing
Confirmation in your heart
Eyes that used to glisten
Laughter and the whispers of those
Memories I wish could always stay

"Darling, quite extravagant all right"
"Now, hang on there Sir 'Glam-A-Lot Supreme'"
"But do I have to remind you?"
"Hey are you still mad at me?"
"I don't even like raisin"
"Hey, that's not the point, why...?"
"Darling, why?"
"'Cause everything is all about her"

So darling, why don't you just wanna listen?
Well, I got nothing queer to say
Hazel...
