Slow Burn

Like all good reasons you come beating like a drum
Such heart sets rhythm syncs its setting with the sun
Sweet lady lilac, how your blessings bare the brunt
Shouldn't serve to cross the crux of waning love

Hold back this season I believe that I'll become
What is needed of me breathing on this island in the sun
It's not easy to be thinking we'll be sinking at the turn
Of a century existing on a slow, slow burn

Mind your own business said the pastor to the priest
Cut slack cut corners save our story at the least
While kings and suitors seek their soul in ivory
There's an all to human side of them you'll find in me

Hold back this season I believe that I'll become
What is needed of me breathing on this island in the sun
It's not easy to be thinking we'll be sinking at the turn
Of a century existing on a slow, slow burn

I, I can behold your side
I, I'm only halfway right
I, I can behold your side
I, I'm only halfway right
