The Minutehand

Sweetness, would you tell me one more time about your love for me I swept you off your feet In dreams you filled my heart with song And in daylight hours I'm humming with the flowers when I can't see you The wind, patient as it stirs There's no need for answers I'll fall down next to her Honey, you say you'll be home soon On so little sleep In a town where the hills are steep I'll find you in my dreams And so for now I lounge around But time won't rest so I leave the minutehand behind Sweetness, the summer's growing near The leaves our decorations For all the roads we drive I long for lazy afternoons on the silver beach The ocean's gentle hands We'll draw our names in sand And so for now I lounge around But time won't rest so I leave the minutehand behind Blue mountain skies They live in her eyes And time won't rest so I leave the minutehand Time won't rest so I leave the minutehand Time won't rest so I leave the minutehand behind
