She was quiet in a loud world. She wore
0:16
denim in a sundress smile, tucked in the
0:18
back by the poetry aisle, glasses low,
0:21
but her eyes called mine. like a
0:24
paperback line frozen in time.
0:29
She looked up said, "Can I help you,
0:31
hun?" I said, "Now I'm just here chasing
0:34
the sun. But truth is, girl, from the
0:36
very first page, you lit up my heart
0:39
like a southern stage.
0:42
Library girl, you got a soul that sings
0:45
more classic than the books with the
0:46
worn out spines. Every word you said,
0:49
every glance you gave was a chapter in a
0:51

where the light hits dust like a fiddle
2:12
tone. They say she left, took a job down
2:14
state, but her goal still waits by the

Library girl, you were my slow dance
