I took the long road just so I could realize Oh, oh, I feel better when I'm alone Eyes closed, warm inside Oh, oh, I can't take it easy when the world wants me to ride Oh, oh, where the darkness resides I wanna hide, hide Just take it slow so I can be the one you want forever Just take it slow so I can be your greatest love So I walk away from you when you make it hard Oh, oh, but I don't wanna turn my back Don't wanna turn my back and play that part No, no, I wish you'd understand The love I had that will never depart No, no, until I go away Don't go astray, no, don't go astray, baby No, no, no, no Just take it slow so I can be the one you want forever Just take it slow so I can be your greatest love The day is long, but my tides are turning The wind is strong, I'll get by The day is long, but my tides are turning The wind is strong But my tides are turning I'll get by But my tides are turning Just take it slow so I can be the one you want forever Just take it slow so I can be your greatest love Oh, love, just take it slow so I can be the one you want forever Just take it slow, baby, so I can be your greatest love
