Slow Bloom

[Intro]
[Verse]
Wurlitzer hums a soft refrain
Washing out the mental strain
Sunlight on the window pane
I’m not running for the train
Bare feet on the floor
I don't need much more
[Pre-Chorus]
Phone is glowing on the rug
Wrapped inside a heavy shrug
Ten unread threads in a row
It feels so good to let them go
[Chorus]
Sweet, slow, sacred time
Finally feeling like I’m mine
Hardwood cool beneath my toes
That’s just how the rhythm goes
No more rushing to the end
I am my own best friend
[Post-Chorus]
Just breathe in the light
Everything is finally right
Ooh, let it bloom
In this quiet room
[Verse]
Steam is rising from the tea
This is where I’m meant to be
Dust motes dancing in the air
Without a single heavy care
Burnout was a ghost I knew
Now the sky is velvet blue
[Chorus]
Sweet, slow, sacred time
Finally feeling like I’m mine
Hardwood cool beneath my toes
That’s just how the rhythm goes
No more rushing to the end
I am my own best friend
[Bridge]
Blank pages, white and clean
The prettiest sight I’ve ever seen
No deadlines, no more weight
It’s okay to be a little late
Saying no felt like a sin
Now I let the silence in
[Breakdown]
(Flugelhorn sighs low)
(Fretless bass starts to flow)
Just being
Just seeing
[Chorus]
Sweet, slow, sacred time
Finally feeling like I’m mine
Hardwood cool beneath my toes
That’s just how the rhythm goes
No more rushing to the end
I am my own best friend
[Post-Chorus]
Just breathe in the light
Everything is finally right
Ooh, let it bloom
In this quiet room
[Outro]
