Quiet Giant

Quiet giant, come sit for awhile
Wanna try to see if I can make you smile
Always seem to be hiding something, making you run
Always seem to trap what's on the tip of your tongue

You're my little bit of French cuisine, my pain au chocolat
Not quite what I had imagined from a guy the like of you,
Back in the day when we first met I'm sure I really worried you
Nowadays how things have changed and we're stuck fast like superglue

Rubbish rhyming is what I'm pushed to do
Just to try and pin down what stands with me and you
And what exactly is it, what exactly can I say?
Is it possible to pin down on any given day

I'm the bubbles in your milkshake made by childish interest
Giving you just what you saw when I was first addressed
Not quite as complicated as we'd like to think
Still I feel I'm the ripple that is making you sink

So, quiet giant, come over and play
Come sit upon my trampoline, do nothing all day
Mutter idle nonsense while we stare into blue
Make pictures from clouds just so there's nothing to do
