No time to wait

Summer 1923, Poppa to takes Nanna to the old oak tree

Where he first told her ‘I love you’ and they kissed.

This time he says things have to change, it’s better for you if we part ways

Cause I can’t build the life here you deserve to live.

And your dad has said it more than once

I will never be his son

We can fight him but you know he’ll never listen

Nanna takes his arm, she takes a breath

She pulls him close until the air between them disappears

She says, ‘You're the only life I want to live

So if it’s oceans, ships, deserts darling I’ll take the risk
