Slowly

(album: Whatever Makes U Happy - 2017)

Came from straight up under
Said, you bring out a side of me
That ain't no one supposed to see
And they'll be times I start to wonder
If I was ever supposed to be
Part of your reality

It's more than just the nights we stay awake
And I'd be dumb to think it'd stay this way
Moments fade and feelings start to change
But I would never take back the time

It happened slowly, over time
I gave you devotion
But you needed emotion
It could've been easy
Could've decided
But you wanted emotion
And I gave you devotion

You needed emotion
But I gave you devotion

Make me wish that I was younger
Yea, I remember innocence
Yea, that long white picket fence
But now I'm stuck under cover
See, I don't wanna let nobody in
But we all know that these things happen

It's more than just the nights we stay awake
And I'd begun to think it'd stay this way
Moments fade and feelings start to change
But I would never take back the time

It happened slowly, over time
I gave you devotion
But you needed emotion
It could've been easy
Could've decided
But you wanted emotion
And I gave you devotion

You needed emotion
But I gave you devotion

I gave you devotion
But you needed emotion

So how was I supposed to know what you needed?

I gave you devotion
But you needed emotion
