lyrics

Promise me you’ll never settle
Promise me you’ll find shimmer in every matte hue
The sky does not need to be blue
That’s what I learned from you

Promise me you’ll save your magic
For someone who wants sparkle in their live
Let’s build a stone house in the woods
I don’t know how to not be good to you

You won’t need a scale
To weigh how much love I have for
You won’t need a clock
To count the minutes I will wait for
You won’t need a level
I’ll walk on crooked floors if need be
I don’t want to forget how to say
I love you

Promise me if we go ten years
Without speaking you will still dream of me
You’ll grow your hair out I’ll cut mine
I’ll think about you all the time

Promise me when our bones get brittle
You will still find glitter in everyday life
Come blue rain or pink sunshine
We’ll still make love all the time

You wont need a scale
To weigh how much love I have for
You won’t need a clock
To count the minutes I will wait for
You won’t need a level
I’ll walk on crooked floors if need be
I don’t want to forget how to say
I love you

Never settle
I don’t want to forget how to say
I love you
Kiss me on my collarbones
And I will surely rise
To watch with you the new day
To sit there warming your side

Did you know birds can learn new songs
Did you know night was so short
Did you hear the last thing I whispered
I hope not, I hope not

Rest your hands on my cold knees
So I may drift to sleep
To dream of curling round you
And wake to find you with me

Never settle
I don’t want to forget how to say
I love you
