Keaton Henson - Save It lyrics

Your touch is a priceless possession
Do not let me tire of it, tell me I've won
Don't waste the touch of your skin
On a greeting
Hold me at night so I know the day is done

My name from your lips is a sonnet
But utter it not just for mere naming's sake
Save all the syllables, wait until morning
Speak to me then, so I know I'm awake

The sound of your laughter
Is music for dancing
And though you should know of
The spell that you cast
Don't spend it eagerly
Wait till it's earnest
Laugh with me then so I know it won't last
There is still a word
Gone un-uttered between us
But don't say it yet darling
I'll tell you when
One day I'll need it like air underwater
Save it till then, will you?
Save it till then
