about

Song I actually had and wrote yearrrrs ago back when I was actually still married. Wanted to write something in 6/8 time almost like a waltz that talks about how you feel like you are pulled in so many directions, but yet you just want to just slow down and be with the ones you really want to be with.

lyrics

Start the day contemplating all the things I must do
it makes my heart race and I just want to slow down
Run around grab your things and you walk through the front door
and once you begin you know it’s not gonna stop
Drop them off, pick them up and the clock starts to tick
and you wonder if things will be done for the day
Get a text, read a message and add things to the list
and you’re running around on a wheel that won’t stop

Please take my hand (take my hand)
and hold me real close (hold me close)
and walk with me - make me
Stop in your arms now (arms now)
Spinning and twisting (twisting)
I’m getting dizzy (dizzy)
Please take my hand and we’ll be together

All alone counting minutes the hamster wheels turning
and I do not see a real endgame in sight
Double booked all my dates on the calendar x’d off
and I just want to know when I’ll see you again
Making plans making choices I don’t want to confirm
I’d rather be laying in bed once again

Now I’m counting the hours till I get to sleep and no matter
what I see it’s never gonna be enough

Please take my hand (take my hand)
and hold me real close (hold me close)
and walk with me - make me
Stop in your arms now (arms now)
Spinning and twisting (twisting)
I’m getting dizzy (dizzy)
Please take my hand and we’ll be together
