Instrumental Intro
Verse 1
Sunday softens every edge
The gate unlatches with a sigh
Pigeons panic then forgive me
Wet grass soaks through my shoes
A saxophone bleeds from a window
Somewhere a kettle starts to cry
Pre-Chorus
And the path keeps bending
The path keeps bending
Chorus
I walk it slow
I walk it slow
Every leaf is turning over
Every leaf is turning over
I let the hours go
I let the hours go
(Let them go)
(Let them go)
Post-Chorus
La-la-la la-la-la
Mm-mm mm-mm
La-la-la la-la-la
Mm-mm mm-mm
Verse 2
Two lovers share one pair of buds
A toddler wages war on swans
The fountain gargles something honest
Old men argue chess for free
I count my worries on my fingers
Then I leave them on the lawn
Pre-Chorus
And the path keeps bending
The path keeps bending
Chorus
I walk it slow
I walk it slow
Every leaf is turning over
Every leaf is turning over
I let the hours go
I let the hours go
(Let them go)
(Let them go)
Post-Chorus
La-la-la la-la-la
Mm-mm mm-mm
La-la-la la-la-la
Mm-mm mm-mm
Bridge
Breathe in the green
Breathe out the noise
Breathe in the green
Breathe out the noise
Nothing here needs fixing
Nothing here needs fixing
Breakdown
Mm
Mm-hmm
Oh-oh
Mm-hmm
Chorus
I walk it slow
I walk it slow
Every leaf is turning over
Every leaf is turning over
I let the hours go
I let the hours go
(Let them go)
(Let them go)
Post-Chorus
La-la-la la-la-la
Mm-mm mm-mm
La-la-la la-la-la
Mm-mm mm-mm
