slowly

slowly, baby

slowly

i know the world is cold

but i promise

my arm will always be warm

and open

but slowly, baby

i know your feet get lonely

when your toes stick out of your blanket

but i promise

i will kiss every crevice

and i will bring home to you

but baby, slowly

i know your eyes well up

when you walk alone

but i promise

i will offer my spine as the floor you step on

and i will protect you

but baby, please, slowly

and i know your fingers run wild on the wires

but i promise

i will kiss your fingertips

until they stop bleeding

but slowly, baby, please

i know the voices are loud

but i will whisper in your ears

and i will drive them away

but slowly, please

baby

lets fall in love slowly
