about

A song about that little gif of two otters holding hands.

lyrics

Hold me close
So you don't float away
Like otters
As they sleep.

It's so easy
To be sure someone's here
Then they're off
In the deep.

Please don't slip away from me
Like others have before

Songs I sing,
And stories you tell,
Well, we listen
And we laugh

Not forever
Tethered in a book
But they're ours
While they last

Please don't slip away from me
But stay a little more

You and I
Both afraid to move too fast
One thing doesnt always have to lead to the next,
Just stay here, that's all that I ask.
Time goes by,
Who can say how long this will last?
One thing doesn't have to lead to anything at all
Just stay here, that's all I ask.

Sun streams in
Your heartbeat is slow
Slow and soft
In my ear

While we're in
Whatever this is we're in,
I'm so happy,
That you're here.

You and I
Both afraid to move too fast
One thing doesnt always have to lead to the next,
Just stay here, that's all that I ask.
Time goes by,
Who can say how long this will last?
One thing doesn't have to lead to anything at all
Just stay here, that's all I ask.
