From the album A Minute of Your Time (2020).
I always dive deep, dig my heels in
Say that I want danger, so I want him
Run fast, like I’m being chased
Or maybe if I stop I’ll realise my mistake
I’m always spinning, dancing on a string
Walking on the tightrope in between
The thrill of it all and then pain when it ends
How many heartbreaks before it never mends
I gotta learn to love slow, to make mistakes and let ‘em go
To be less familiar with rising from the ash
I gotta learn to see it through, to treat you how I promised to
To see eye to eye instead of sleeping back to back
And if you wait with me while I do
I’ll learn to love slow with you
Bared teeth, learned to fight
After a thousand times not being treated right
Claws came out, earned my stripes
So forgive me if I thought you weren’t my type
I’m always yearning, begging for someone
To throw me the smallest scrap of their love
Till you came along, handed over your plate
Sated me with that soft look on your face
I gotta learn to love slow, to make mistakes and let ‘em go
To be less familiar with rising from the ash
I gotta learn to see it through, to treat you how I promised to
To see eye to eye instead of sleeping back to back
And if you wait with me while I do
I’ll learn to love slow with you
Dive deep, dig my heels in
I fight the same these days but sometimes I give in
Run fast, but you know to wait
For me to run back and say I’ve made a mistake
I gotta learn to love slow, to make mistakes and let ‘em go
To be less familiar with rising from the ash
I gotta learn to see it through, to treat you how I promised to
To see eye to eye instead of sleeping back to back
And if you wait with me while I do
Please wait with me while I do
And if you wait with me while I do
I’ll learn to love slow with you
