Witt Lowry - Lately

Yeah

Lately I've been reminded, they say time's of the essence

You pulled me deep from the trenches, I guess we're here for confessions

And lately, I been reminded that love is patient and blind

I can write a million lines and never find the words to define us

I know it's best not to rush

I know you're unsure if you're worth, I know how deep that can cut

He broke you down, so you don't feel much, there's forty thousand strings

Holding back our past precautions not often I let you in

It's not often you let me in, I get it, I mean why would you to

Take a chance on me? Then I get, I mean why should you?

'Cause me, I'm just a waiter with lucid dreams of the music

And you, you could find any guy, open mind in a student

I say it, in case we lose it, I hope that that never happens

I know our love runs deeper than just lust and attraction

I guess it's all the little things lately that make me think

I remember nights by the beach and us laughin' 'til we can't breathe

Or that CVS down the street, I don't know if you would agree

But I think...

Someday I'll change for you

Right now I'm tryna get better

Old flames still burn like new

Sometimes they're hard to sever

And these walls don't lie, all they speak is truth

In this empty room, all I see is you

Someday I'll change for you

Right now I'm tryna get better

Lately I've been reminded that love is all that is timeless

The pain you paint on your face, I see strength behind both your eyelids

And lately I've been reminded, I'm flawed, and nobody's perfect

The distance isn't easy, but nothin' is when it's worth it

I'm workin' to bring you all that I sense the weight that you carry

I wish you would let it all out and trust me, because I can't see

I wish you wouldn't compare me, he loved you without your clothes

But no, he's never seen you naked, never seen into your soul

And I love the way I see your mind, wonder when I get deep with you

I wonder why you cry when I tell you that I believe in you

I wish that I could take away the pain of how he treated you

My favorite nights were nights when it felt like it were just me and you

Damn, and if you ever cannot stand me

I hope that I made an impact and showed your heart what love can be

Envision us with a family, envision us where it's sandy

I feel you bringing me close, they in love with lovin' what can be

I know...

Someday I'll change for you

Right now I'm tryna get better

Old flames still burn like new

Sometimes they're hard to sever

And these walls don't lie, all they speak is truth

In this empty room, all I see is you

Someday I'll change for you

Right now I'm tryna get better

I think about the nights you cried as you reminisce on your parents

And the way you know that money can't buy love as a parent

You're self conscious of your ears, your head's always down when you wear it

And you I never drink when I'm soggy drunk it's apparent

I know, I just love watchin' you grow, you feel the weight on my soul

I always mess with a ten, I'm always hot when you're cold

And if they told us our love was just for a season

I want you to know I loved you, I gave my all and I mean it

I know...

Someday I'll change for you

Right now I'm tryna get better

Old flames still burn like new

Sometimes they're hard to sever

And these walls don't lie, all they speak is truth

In this empty room, all I see is you

Someday I'll change for you

Right now I'm tryna get better
