Slow Vines

D                    E
My job to put you to sleep
D                               E
Slip into your breathing on the cusp of a dream
D                 E
All lives are mysteries
              D                 E
And when we close our eyes we write them

[Chorus]
D                        E
Baby baby baby why don't you come back to me
       D                                 E
I'll punch the numbers once and, feeling blunt, I'll give up
    D                           E
Consider all the foolishness in fooling around
    D                          E
Consider how our kisses made a quiet sound
D
and delayed you

[Verse]
D                       E
Slow vines keep on climbing,
   D                              E
Sticking to the brick and licking concrete's pits
   D                        E
A wave's favorite game is timing
              D                 E
When you're lost in it you can never be late
          D                         E
When you lose your breath all your plans are a waste

[Chorus]
D                       E
Baby baby baby could we do it again
      D                             E
I've yet to get how bodies could be a best friend
     D                        E
Relying on the selfishness of just-pleasing-me
     D                         E
Relying on the past will never make you free
       D
just delay you
