The Long Way

I wish that I could hang you up like art
Because I see so much beauty in all the spaces you see dark
I know you're scared of falling fast, so let's just stay right here
Frozen in the moment

I wish that I could wake up to those eyes
It all feels so much better by your side
It's been awhile, and I've never felt this way
I'm thinkin' there's a reason, and I'm hoping you might stay

We can take the long way. There's no need to rush this
Got some things in my past that are holding me back
But I want you to know if you wait through the snow
I'll take your hand and never let you go

I wish that you could see the things I see
Because everything makes sense when you're staring back at me
I know we're young, and it's just begun, so we'll just take our time
Babe, I'm down for the ride

We can take the long way. There's no need to rush this
Got some things in my past that are holding me back
But I want you to know if you wait through the snow
I'll take your hand and never let you go

I don't want to take no chances
This is more than just romance, and I see it in your eyes
The way I feel inside my chest is something I just can't pretend
Because I see it in the end

I wish that you could see the things I see
Because everything makes sense when you're staring back at me
I know we're young, and it's just begun, so we'll just take our time
Babe, I'm down for the ride
