This might escalate too much for you
But I promise to wait for you
I think we both know what's on my mind
The words are there, they're just hard to find
Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you

I'm taking my time, hold on tight
I hope you don't mind if it takes all night
There's something that I can't get through
And it's the thought of losing you

I'm sorry that I took so long
Even if I said it wrong
There's no hurry, you don't have to answer yet
But I will worry if your mind forgets

This might take us all our lives
But I will try to get it right
For what it should and should never be
I'll promise you if you'll promise me
Don't give up on me
And I won't give up on you
