Sip It Slow

4/20/2016

Comments

 
It's getting late
The moon is high in the sky
I'm asking God if he can stop time
He wasn't home
I left a message at the tone
Baby, listen to me
I know that you have places to be
But can you stay here forever with me?
We still have half a bottle of wine
Sip it slow
I'm not ready to watch you go
I want to taste the wine off your lips
Get drunk off your hips
Let's dance tomorrow away
My worries are gone
I'm only thinking of you
Your eyes are my sun
Nourish my soul
Hold me tight
I close my eyes
And envision forever with you
I open them and see the sun begin to rise
I guess God didn't get my message
The empty bottle rolls quickly down the hill
I look up and you're gone
It's me alone in my bed
It was all in my head
I call God once again
"Leave a message at the tone"
Beep.
Lord, it's been three years
I hope she is doing well
Tell her hi
When she comes flying by 
Tell her I'll join her shortly
And we'll be together again
I still remember that night on the hill
With her in my arms
I never let go
Tell her, Lord, I still haven't let go
Baby, I'll never let go
