take it easy

it's 9:57 & you are on my mind

last night was lonely & i would've called but i was afraid i'd hear the dial tone
( i've never been very good at leaving voicemails, not like you are )

all day i've been thinking about the curve of your wrist & the september in your eyes
( i'm sorry i'm writing about you again, i can't always help it )

if this is it, i just wanted to thank you, for straightening my spine & for teaching me to tie my hair back
( i don't think i ever told you how much it meant )

please just take it easy
i'm trying to take it easy
please just let me take it easy
let's take it easy
just
take 
it 
easy
