Stumbling Slow

Intro

Oh-oh-oh

Lee-ay-ee-hoo

Verse 1

Mending fences I should have fixed before the snow

I stood still

Counting circles on the stump of a pine tree

I forgot how to tell you to stay

Pre-Chorus

Wait for the rain

Wait for the thunder

Wait for the lightning to crack

Chorus

Stumbling slow while you were running ahead

Running ahead

Now I'm sleeping on your side of the bed

Side of the bed

Maybe I was too far away

Too far away

For a word I never knew how to say

Ay-ee-hoo

Post-Chorus

Ooo-ooo

Lee-ay-ee-hoo

La-da-dee

Verse 2

Pocket watch clicking inside my denim vest

Rusty springs

I traded gold for a handful of gray stones

Your red ribbon is tangled in the garden weeds

Pre-Chorus

Look at the map

Look at the compass

Look at the miles I made

Chorus

Stumbling slow while you were running ahead

Running ahead

Now I'm sleeping on your side of the bed

Side of the bed

Maybe I was too far away

Too far away

For a word I never knew how to say

Ay-ee-hoo

Bridge

Copper kettle

Copper coins

Copper sun setting on the porch swing

I reached out

But my hands were full of winter

Chorus

Stumbling slow while you were running ahead

Running ahead

Now I'm sleeping on your side of the bed

Side of the bed

Maybe I was too far away

Too far away

For a word I never knew how to say

Ay-ee-hoo

Post-Chorus

Ooo-ooo

Lee-ay-ee-hoo

La-da-dee
