Marble - Arms Akimbo

Standing at the top of the stairs

She’s laden marble and I can’t compare

What’ll I do with that?

Can’t compete with these suitors at bat

She’s flinching when he touches her back

He talks about the moon like in victory lap

I can’t quite hear from here

But she’s walking away

Please

Don’t get so far from me

Please

Don’t get so far from me

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

Another boy with a penchant for pleasure

And a serenade softer than hands

Who am I racing against?

These boys or myself

I’m sweating cause she finally giggled

And I’m acting like I did in the past

Who says she wants anyone?

And will that even last

Please

Don’t get so far from me

Please

Don’t get so far from me

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

She’s fixing her dress while I hum to myself

«That I’m not in a rush

I just don’t wanna be out of touch.»

And she said, «I don’t know about you

But I wanted to prove I ain’t something to lose.»

Grasping for thoughts and I’m pulling for words

«I don’t know what you’ve heard

I’m not worth the trouble these days.»

«It's okay, I don’t care anyway

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day.»

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Don’t get so far from me

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Don’t get so far from me

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Don’t get so far from me

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Don’t get so far from me

Can we let go while our hearts start forming?

I feel closer this moment than I felt all day

Don’t get so far from me
