Oh, it's been so long Since I have been in love But we are not to blame This is not our perfect game And we are both the same We're both gun-shy You might not be good for me But I want to wait and see Because you're more than kind of great I think you're worth the wait If it doesn't turn to hate It might be love This is not a test for us Oh, it's been far too long Since I have had this much fun So we'll just wait and see We'll sing our different keys And if we're what we both need We'll fall in love

Stuck on You 03:08
Baby, my eyes are stuck on you they're locked, they're glued nothing to do Baby, my eyes are stuck on you Our rendez-vous, nothing to lose I can't help it I'm mesmerized and I can't help it, keeping it inside I just want you to look at me tonight I just want you to look me in the eyes Baby, my eyes are stuck on you they're locked, they're glued nothing to do Baby, my eyes are stuck on you Our rendez-vous, nothing to lose I keep hoping that you are right and I keep holding it inside I'm not waiting for you to decide I'm not hesitating I want you to be mine Baby, my eyes are stuck on you they're locked, they're glued nothing to do Baby, my eyes are stuck on you Our rendez-vous, nothing to lose

Honey, Honey 02:53
Honey, honey kiss me with those eyes Honey, honey miss me all through the night Honey, honey kiss me with those eyes And love me from across the floor Our eyes meet in between the seas of people around The music plays, all the people sway while you and I drown If only we could leave our seats Honey, honey touch me, hold my hand Honey, honey whisper that you're my man Honey, honey touch me, hold my hand and love me from across the floor Our eyes meet in between the seas of people around The music plays, all the people sway while you and I drown If only we could leave our seats

What do I ask for? Do I expect too much? I'm wanting affection I want to feel loved I give it some time Maybe you will see All that you're doing How it's affecting me And I see you Through these rose-colored shades "I care about you deeply" I know all this is true but why is it so easy for you to get me blue I wish and wish for fullness for sweet, sweet sympathy but all I really get is bitter continuity And I see you through these rose-colored shades And I still hate you But I still love you Because I still see you through these rose-colored shades

I'm not sure yet Don't know when I'll be Could you wait for me or would you clip my wings? I can't be sure yet Because I'm not ready So please don't rush me I want what's best for you and me Don't try to control what's happening I want what's best, not what is easy It's not easy rushing things So don't rush me Why won't you give it up? Because I'm not happy Why can't you see that you're hurting me? I want to be myself apart from you and me I'm just trying to breathe I want what's best for you and me Don't try to control what's happening I want what's best, not what is easy It's not easy rushing things So don't rush me Because I'm easily wrong Easily hurt, easily pushed down in the dirt I'm easily torn about what to decide So please just stay by my side tonight (I want what's best why can't you see? I need some time, let me be free) I want what's best for you and me Don't try to control what's happening I want what's best, not what is easy It's not easy rushing things So don't rush me

Without You (free) 02:32
The sunset blinds my eyes just like the time you said "Goodbye" But I am driving just fine just like the way I am tonight And I can go to sleep and dream soundly but my dreams are all of you And I will bend not break but I'm trying to take each day slowly with you or rather, without you The coastline glows at night and I am doing just fine Sometimes I want back our life but "sometimes" is not tonight And I can go to sleep and dream soundly but my dreams are all of you And I will bend not break but I'm trying to take each day slowly with you or rather, without you I'm getting through I'm doing just fine without you I'm living my life for something new This is the last song I'm going to write that's about you I'm moving on I'm breaking new ground that you're standing on I'm forging ahead past what is wrong This is the last song I'm going to write that's about you And I can go to sleep and dream soundly but my dreams are all of you And I will bend not break but I'm trying to take each day slowly with you or rather, without you

What am I doing here? What won't I say out of fear of losing a friend fear of losing again You just smile just sit there and smile You light up the dark What are we doing here? 3am and you're in my arms So close because it's dark so close you feel my beating heart Don't you go No, don't you go I don't know what to say Come up with a clever line I just look the other way Oh no, is that a bad sign? Are we both in denial? Please, God, don't let me mess this up So I just sit there and smile And you just smile Just sit there and smile You light up the dark

about

This is our first album. We recorded it in 3 days with our friend, Jonathan O'Brien, in the fall of 2011. We set up shop in the sanctuary of Drew's church and played, sang, stomped, and clapped until we couldn't anymore, and this album is the result.

about

The Slow Waltz California

The Slow Waltz first formed in early 2009 as a side project by Drew Williams and Megan Atlakson. Both Drew and Megan had been writing music separately and had been affiliated with various groups before deciding to come together and try their hand at writing together. The result was immediately recognized as being awesome, and they haven't looked back since. ... more
