Little darlin' with the precious heart,

rest here a little while longer with me
let me run my fingers in your long hair
I'm so glad that together we are free
you gave me a connection to share.

I had once thought you would leave
forever gone and I would be unforgiven
you said that I simply didn't believe
but you had never stopped being driven.

Feeling your skin now as it is bare
I can see the scars I have left on you
yet they're worn with pride and without scare
you loved me more than I ever knew.

Lay here with me, let me soak you in
into your warm, sweet scent I burrow
run your fingertips along my chin
wipe away my brow's furrow.

Yes, just as you've always done for me
through agonizing heartbreak and pain
even after you left me at that tree
after that, we both stood in sorrow rain.

I had been so foolish, so selfish before
I feared you would never take me again
but I ran hopeful and scared to your door
and it was a lack of love you couldn't feign.

A smile and kiss bound us together
forgiven once more, I would hold you forever
as you said we'd survive this stormy weather
Our tie is something we can never sever.

Now little darlin', stand and take my hand
dance and sway with me until the end
look at your shimmering wedding band
into new happy lives together we ascend.
Inspired by personal thoughts and tons of Tom Odell's music.
