This Might Take a Little While

I could run away, pretend it's gone

Carrying the ashes of a love

I could hold a faith like falling hearts

If I knew they didn't break apart

In the fading light, this lonely hour

Did I turn it over? Claim a cause?

'Fore we know we ever played it wrong

If we could only give in we'd belong

Like a seed in shallow ground

Swallowed by the rain

This might take a little while

Wipe the sleep away

But I'll stay around

Why can nobody wake up oh no

From the crushing weight of it all

Who would ever know, holy love

Never gonna show the way it moves

Come out where you are

You're not, you're not far

You can almost taste it, touch-and-go

But you feel like you wasted one more show

Like a seed in shallow ground

Swallowed by the rain

This might take a little while

Wipe the sleep away

But I'll stay around

Swallowed by the rain

Wipe the sleep away

Swallowed by the rain
