One Word Reminder

It's on my lips, right there,
on the tip of my tongue.
Struck deaf to wiser words,
but one word from you,
one word will do

just fine.
Just speak and I will be just fine.
Just fine.
One word and I will be just fine.

Your words move and mend,
make me mind myself
a little more, maybe.
We're as right as we are wrong
and I understand

just fine.
Just speak and I will be just fine.
Just fine.
One word and I will be just fine.

Focus on your pause between words for a change.
Shed light on breaths taken between phrases
before the changes take effect.

Watched pity from our balcony.
Washed envy down with wine.
Talkative, so far from sober,
- bless the wine-
I, we feel fine.

Just fine.
Just speak and we will be just fine.
Just fine.
One word and we will be just fine.

This is all you mean to me.
This is all you matter.
Remind me to mind myself
just that little more.
