Slow and Easy

Let's go somewhere where time goes slow
Let's walk a shoreline to and fro
Let's count the stars off one by one
And never count on being done
For that's the point, to always be
Counting stars off, you and me
See this way we won't ever end 
Thus we won't have to wonder when
We'll see each other once again

Let's toast a sunset sip by sip
Let's drink a rainstorm drip by drip
Let's love each other long and right
Then in each other's arms that night 
Snuggle up and cuddle in
Beneath a blanket, skin on skin
And in that way then fall asleep
I'll count yous instead of sheep
Unpublished dreams of you I'll keep
