   I swear I w

             
as born right 

        
in the doorway

hey're spreadi

ng 
            
   blankets on

        
 the beach
             
   Yours is th

             
e first face t

      
hat I saw
             
   I think I w

             
as blind befor

    
e I met you
              
   Now I don’t

orever
          
    I especial

      
ly am slow
     
    But I real

ize that I nee
