Nonfiction Love Song

Want to write a nonfiction love song,

'Cause I don't have one yet.

I've got almost and maybes

And what happened here baby,

But not a love song.

But we've got time to kill

All the reasons we should hold back,

And I wear you on a

Locket 'round my neck

And I haven't opened it up yet.

But I'll look back and laugh, I bet,

And tell you 'bout these days

Like they are stories of old.

And I wish my voice would echo

Through galaxies and such

To scratch the surface of

Explaining to you just how much I'm glad...

You don't have to try,

You don't have to change;

Baby, you stay just the same.

Used to want time to run so quickly,

But now crawling is fine.

'Cause the older I get the more

I see I need every moment

To let my roots grow down deep.

So we've got time to kill

All the reasons we should hold back,

And I wear you on a

Locket 'round my neck

And I haven't opened it up yet.

But I'll look back and laugh, I bet,

And tell you 'bout these days

Like they are stories of old.

And I wish my voice would echo

Through galaxies and such

To scratch the surface of

Explaining to you just how much I'm glad...

You don't have to try,

You don't have to change;

Baby you stay just the same.

I'll try not to wish you would hurry,

I'm learning how not to worry;

I don't want to let you down.

Could I sing to you every week,

Make just enough for what we need

And walk together 'round the town?

I'll try not to wish you would hurry,

I'm learning how not to worry;

I don't want to let you down.

Could I sing to you every week,

Make just enough for what we need

And walk together 'round the town?

Wish my voice would echo

Through galaxies and such

To scratch the surface of

Explaining to you just how much I'm glad...

You don't have to try,

You don't have to change;

Baby you stay just the same.
