Sitting Still

I've been taking mornings slowly
Waking up with the sweet sound of the birds
Reading books and sipping coffee
I forgot how much I love getting lost in words

It took us a while to get here
It took the world falling apart
But maybe we needed to take
A step back to remember how lucky we are

It's like time has fallen asleep in the afternoon
So life is keeping us warm
Against our will, we're finally sitting still
And savoring the days before they're gone
I wonder how it took us this long

Spend our evenings telling stories
And playing games like we're all kids again
Sitting on the front porch laughing
It's got to be the finest medicine

It's like time has fallen asleep in the afternoon
So life is keeping us warm
Against our will, we're finally sitting still
And savoring the days before they're gone
I wonder how it took us this long

This long
This long

It's like time has fallen asleep in the afternoon
So life is keeping us warm
Against our will, we're finally sitting still
And savoring the days before they're gone
I wonder how it took us this long
This long
