Sweet, sweet, sweet
Sweet tangerine
A moment to be
Us again
Let time be
Messy and free
And drip through our fingers
Sweet tangerine
Sweet tangerine

Time's movin' faster
Like kids growin' up
And I've gone from gin
To hot tea in this cup
The world's a disaster
There's no keepin' up
But that never stopped us
From fallin' in love

Oh the sweet, sweet, sweet
Sweet tangerine
A moment to be
Us again
Let time be
Messy and free
And drip through our fingers
A sweet tangerine
A sweet tangerine

Time's movin' faster
Don't slow down enough
There's so much to manage
I panic to rush
I'm guilty of tryin'
And speedin' things up
I don't always breathe
Or stay present to see

Oh the sweet, sweet, sweet
Sweet tangerine
A moment to be
Us again
Let time be
Messy and free
And drip through our fingers
Sweet tangerine
Sweet tangerine

Sweet tangerine

Seeds turn to trees
But the fruit only lasts for so long
You hold to the moment then suddenly
The moment is gone

The sweet, sweet, sweet
Sweet tangerine
A moment to be
Us again
Let time be
Messy and free
And drip through our fingers
Sweet, sweet, sweet
Sweet tangerine
A moment to be
Us again
Let time be
Messy and free
And drip through our fingers

And drip through our fingers
And drip through our fingers
Messy and free
Let time drip through our fingers
Drip through our fingers
Oh, drip through our fingers
Drip through our fingers
Let time drip through our fingers
