"Love in Time" - Esperanza Spalding
Let's wait a little while
And find out why we're waiting
Amidst those parading desire like a torch fire
Amidst those who scramble for love, all a flutter
When true love is something subtler we'll create
If we just wait
We can't rush a happy ending
That's not in our destiny's plan
Sweet this seems
We can't see the grand scheme of our lives
Which really are what we'd share if this romance is true
So take time to live yours
I will, too, while we...
Wait a little while and be sure we're not fooled
By the things we've been schooled
To take as signs that love's arrived
Like charm, wit, and beauty
Our youth made us seek them
But in truth we don't need them
We're in love, so let's take our time
