Fiona, Take Your Time

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You leave your blue scarf on the chair A paper cup beside the stairs You say the rain will pass by noon Then hum the tune you made up in June [Pre-Chorus] I know the way you count the days By little things you never say [Chorus] Fiona, take your time The road can wait beyond the pines If all you have is half a plan I’ll meet you where the map began Fiona, stay awhile You make the long way feel worthwhile [Verse 2] Your kitchen clock is running slow The basil leans toward the window You draw a house with one red door And leave a place for something more [Pre-Chorus] You fold the page and tuck it in Like somewhere new is listening [Chorus] Fiona, take your time The road can wait beyond the pines If all you have is half a plan I’ll meet you where the map began Fiona, stay awhile You make the long way feel worthwhile [Bridge] When plans come loose like thread When every sign points somewhere else You don’t have to know the end Just take my hand and take one step [Final Chorus] Fiona, take your time The road can wait beyond the pines If all you have is half a plan I’ll meet you where the map began Fiona, stay awhile You make the long way feel worthwhile [Outro] Your blue scarf waits upon the chair And morning finds us still right there
