[00:12.30] He sits low
[00:13.23] In a shady grove
[00:14.84] Where the trees arc slow
[00:16.29] In the shape of you know
[00:18.26] Marble stairwells waterfalls
[00:21.16] Egrets heads and open arms
[00:24.13] Whistling through his pensive teeth
[00:27.73] The scene is set to peak
[00:29.59] Like how the desert meets the reef
[00:32.21] And steals the heart
[00:33.12]
[00:33.74] Of the thief
[00:34.63]
[00:36.15] She walks slow
[00:37.18] Past the reach of home
[00:38.80] In a western world
[00:40.06] Far from the things she knows
[00:42.14] Hanging gardens patterned walls
[00:44.91] The books of Rilke orchestras
[00:48.11] Motioning to the slow refrain
[00:51.71] The soul is set to gain
[00:53.76] Or swallow it whole
[00:55.50]
[00:56.39] The causal chain
[00:57.12]
[00:57.75] Of human loam
[00:58.90]
[00:59.83] And as seasons go
[01:01.34] It's a lot like this
[01:02.93] He reasons for a look
[01:04.82] And then a glance
[01:05.72] To the path
[01:06.82] Where she passed
[01:08.01] From the page of a book
[01:09.91] To a perch in the grass
[01:11.87] As meetings go
[01:13.20] It's a lot like this
[01:14.92] She tiptoes from the path
[01:16.97] To the edge of the page
[01:18.69] Where she dared
[01:20.01] To be asked
[01:20.90] What's in a name
[01:22.08] What is your name
[01:23.08]
[01:25.63] And if you let me know
[01:27.23]
[01:28.80] I won't be alone
[01:30.25]
[01:31.76] I won't be alone
[01:34.17]
[01:34.95] And if you
[01:36.11]
[01:37.72] Have the time to talk to me
[01:39.77]
[01:40.79] I won't doubt you
[01:42.48]
[01:43.38] And if I let you know
[01:45.14]
[01:49.40] And if I let you know
[01:51.29]
[01:52.84] I won't be alone
[01:54.28]
[01:55.59] I won't be alone
[01:58.13]
[01:59.24] And if you
[02:00.09]
[02:01.50] And if you start to fall
[02:03.42]
[02:04.81] I'll be here to catch you
[02:06.46]
[02:12.33] Turning around he sighs
[02:15.06] Will you sit next to me
[02:17.78]
[02:18.39] Motioning forward
[02:19.98] She replies
[02:21.08] Will you walk next to me
[02:23.73]
[02:24.57] I know my lines
[02:25.82]
[02:26.66] There's a lot less space
[02:28.51] A little bit of time
[02:29.91]
[02:30.49] I know the play
[02:31.83]
[02:32.46] It's fine
[02:33.56]
[02:36.30] Echoing herself she says
[02:39.25] Will you walk close to me
[02:41.80]
[02:42.43] Holding his smile
[02:44.13] He replies
[02:45.00] What more would you ask of me
[02:47.73]
[02:48.59] I know my mind
[02:50.58] And there's a lot less space
[02:52.53] A little bit of time
[02:53.84]
[02:54.48] I know the way
[02:55.77]
[02:56.45] It's fine
[02:57.52]
[03:01.63] And if you let me know
[03:03.24]
[03:04.83] I won't be alone
[03:06.22]
[03:07.75] I won't be alone
[03:10.26]
[03:11.13] And if you
[03:12.07]
[03:13.68] Have the time to talk to me
[03:15.74]
[03:16.82] I won't doubt you
[03:18.44]
[03:19.21] And if I let you know
[03:21.37]
[03:25.65] And if I let you know
[03:27.35]
[03:28.83] I won't be alone
[03:30.43]
[03:31.79] I won't be alone
[03:34.38]
[03:35.07] And if you
[03:36.13]
[03:37.46] And if you start to fall
[03:39.57]
[03:40.61] I'll be here to catch you
[03:42.42]
[04:13.05] He's wasting time
[04:15.21]
[04:16.20] You gotta take it slow
[04:18.38]
[04:21.67] May never get a chance like this
[04:23.81]
[04:25.00] And she knows he's wasting time
[04:27.91] And she loves the way he tries
[04:30.32]
[04:30.98] Even though she knows the lines
[04:33.39]
[04:36.90] She's taking time
[04:39.30]
[04:40.31] You gotta let things grow
[04:42.46]
[04:45.58] May never have a chance like this
[04:47.92]
[04:48.80] And he knows she takes her time
[04:52.02] And he keeps along side
[04:54.51] All hopes to keep along her side
[04:57.18]
[04:59.92] And as seasons go
[05:01.33] It's a lot like this
[05:02.97] He reasons for a look
[05:04.89] Then a glance
[05:05.76] To the path
[05:06.89] Where she passed
[05:08.03] From the page of a book
[05:09.86] To a perch in the grass
[05:11.74] And as meetings go
[05:13.32] It's a lot like this
[05:14.94] She tiptoes from the path
[05:17.01] To the edge of the page
[05:18.74] Where she dared
[05:19.96] To be asked
[05:21.08] What's in a name
[05:22.04] What is your name
[05:23.35]
