Take Your Time

Tekst utworu

[Verse 1] I called your number after work The kettle clicked behind my words You picked up, but you didn’t say hello Just breathed, like you were weighing what I owe [Pre-Chorus] I said, “I know I left you waiting” You said, “That’s not all, you know” Then silence settled between us And I finally let it show [Chorus] You’re upset, and I can hear it In the pause before you speak I won’t ask you to forgive me Just to tell me what you need If you want the night to yourself I’ll respect the space you choose I called because I miss you But I’m listening now to you [Verse 2] You said I laughed when you were serious Changed the subject, checked the time I tried to make a small excuse You said, “You always do that line” [Pre-Chorus] So I put my reasons down And let your whole sentence land I don’t want to win this moment I want to understand [Chorus] You’re upset, and I can hear it In the pause before you speak I won’t ask you to forgive me Just to tell me what you need If you want the night to yourself I’ll respect the space you choose I called because I miss you But I’m listening now to you [Bridge] You don’t have to make it easy You don’t have to soften things I can stay here through the hard part And hear what hurt beneath [Final Chorus] You’re upset, and I can hear it Still, I’m here and I won’t rush I’ll remember what you told me Not just say the words you trust If you want the night to yourself I’ll respect the space you choose I called because I miss you And I’m listening now to you [Outro] Take your time, I’m here Take your time, I’m here
