A Supplement to Sunshine

moi Caprice

If time is what she needs

Let her take her time

But keep her fingers far from mine

Try an altered speed

All armed with bitter will

But time is all she has to kill

I realize it’s late

To realize a mistake

Halfway through the wedding cake

But there’s nothing to debate

It was something close to love

It just wasn’t close enough

Time is what she needs

'Cause unlike wine and beer

It'll fade what now seems near

So try an altered speed

I know it takes a while

But every timeline hides a smile

She sat by the side of the road

With her lips twitching and a heavy load

A sunrise over the library slope

It’s early, too early to abandon hope

That it’s something more than that

It's more than just a supplement to sunshine

Those lips in an upwards curl

Might just be a certain sign

Time is what she needs

Time is what she needs
