the bent grass yields beneath our weight
we watch the constellations tilt
the architecture of the sky
is heavy like a velvet coat
the atmosphere is thick and still
holding every word we breathe
the horizon is a jagged line
waiting for the sun to break the seal
you taste like sugar and honey
a promise kept beneath the dark
(sweet and honey)
i am tied to your orbit now
(tied to your orbit)
everything is crystalline and new
the cedar trees are bending low
to hear the vows we finally speak
everything else feels like salt
or dust upon a window ledge
the garden gate is missing paint
but your hand is a steady anchor
the seasons move in circles now
we are the center of the wheel
you taste like sugar and honey
a promise kept beneath the dark
(sweet and honey)
i am tied to your orbit now
(tied to your orbit)
everything is crystalline and new
i will not move an inch from here
(stay right here)
while the world spins itself thin
(stay right here)
looking for a place to rest
(rest with me)
we are the only thing that sticks
you taste like sugar and honey
a promise kept beneath the dark
(sweet and honey)
i am tied to your orbit now
(tied to your orbit)
everything is crystalline and new
sweet and honey
(sweet and honey)
like a tether in the grass
(sweet and honey)
the stars are just a witnesses
to the sugar on your breath
(sweet and honey)
