Time used to run so slow I remember counting down the seconds, minutes, hours until I could escape away Sleep was the only time I felt free But now, I have something different to say I wish time would slow down Instead of wanting to escape, it's you I want to be around I count down the time where I can be In your arms Yours to keep It's all just so easy You and me I don't have to pretend to be Anything but what I am naturally Knowing you want me just for that Means more than any gesture one could make No words even have to be said My time is for you to take I wouldn't mind I wouldn't mind waking up every morning consumed by thoughts of you Instead of the countless nights that turn into mornings constantly putting myself down I wouldn't mind keeping you around. If only you'll stick around. Please stick around.
