[Verse 1]
We gon' run away soon
Ghost in the Wintertime
Sky painted navy blue
Coast through the turpentine
We're just trying to follow our heart's desire
We ain't chasing money, no
So they say we ain't acting right
[Chorus]
Well, listen
I don't wanna waste time
Let's go
I don't wanna waste time
Let's go baby
Yeah
[Verse 2]
They don't see the benefit
'Less you gettin' benefits
I turned my two cents into this
They hopin' it's for the Benjamins
But we're done
Go around playin' stupid
Ha
She just wanna paint now
I just wanna make music
(What else though?)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna waste time
Let's go
I don't wanna waste time
Let's go
I don't wanna waste time
Let's go
I don't wanna waste time
[Outro: Field Recording]
Grasping for something to hold onto
Is that where you found your lover?
Unexamined feelings of not being enough
You rush to cling to another
You forget that sowing your seed in a bed full of weeds
Stifles germination of its nourishing fruit
Still, a different path lies ahead of you
Tend to your soil in joyful solutide
And it won't take much effort for seeds to take root
Soft, as a butterfly kisses a late summer bloom
Gently, like the clouds merging in the sky
The unforeseen conglomeration of you and I
If you were to go, I'd have my own
Yet these nectars only grow sweeter
When we mix them together
But these delights in which we share
Were cultivated through time on our own
Is a love of being alone what it takes
To grow alongside one another?
