I'm just that girl you love to lust
 because they never seem quiet enough,
 an understated lack of trust, 
Your kind words are simply, just

 slow and steady is all I ask, 
A slower pace then my ugly past 
Hold my hand, stay by my side
Let's sit together on the ride of life

Through stomach dropping hills
We put miles on the wheels
Heading to anywhere different 
Then the truth of her world

From the sounds of the tides 
To the familiar highs 
As each town passes
The butterflies fly

Never again tell me goodbye
Dont promise me everything Under the sky
Save the gossip and silence the lies
And we can give this chapter a fighting try 

Demand your spot and draw a line 
Please understand things are different this time
Everything slows to nearly a stop
And I suddenly see what I've suddenly got 

happiness sits awkwardly on the edge of the seat
Reminisce on past days when you'd offered defeat 
Grudges seemed dropped unjust and weak 
Another attempt is worth trying it seems 

Tread the water, carefully
Don't give me less then honesty
Whisper the truth that I need to hear
Softly, slowly, in my waiting ear
