| She takes it deep to the heart right from the start she talks softly over a
|
| glass of wine
|
| Now and again she’s more than a friend, why don’t you just throw me that line
|
| It would be great if she’d dedicate just a minute from her precious time
|
| I’ll give it a while, but that’s not my style, now how is that a crime?
|
| Everyone says that I’m wild
|
| Pardon my French but I still know my child
|
| And that was the day I told her I needed some time
|
| Well I began walking when she was still talking I’m looking for that exit sign
|
| Pardon my face but I’m leaving no trace cause I really haven’t got the time
|
| Well I began thinking and my heart is just sinking and I’m looking for that
|
| place to go
|
| Isn’t it sad that she’ll treat you so bad, but you never really let her know
|
| And everyone says that she’s crying
|
| But I can’t forget all the time I spent trying
|
| And that was the day I told her I needed some time
|
| I know, I know what it feels like to be alone
|
| I know, I know what it feels like to be at home
|
| I like, I like stopping to say hello
|
| It’s my life, my life why can’t we take this slow?
|
| Why can’t we take this slow?
|
| Well I’ve been through these phases, I’ve walked through these mazes
|
| I’m sick and I’m little tired
|
| It sure isn’t fair but I’m not aware of the patience that’s required
|
| If I could have kissed her every time that I missed her I wouldn’t be out the
|
| door
|
| But now and again, I sure need a friend now isn’t that what she’s for?
|
| And everyone says that I’m lying
|
| But I can’t forget all the time she spent crying
|
| And that was the day I told her I needed some time
|
| I know, I know what it feels like to be alone
|
| I know, I know what it feels like to be at home
|
| I like, I like stopping to say hello
|
| It’s my life, my life why can’t we take this slow?
|
| Baby take it slow
|
| It’s my life
|
| My life
|
| Why can’t we take it slow?
|
| Baby, take it slow |
