Slow
Embracing Patience: Understanding the Pace of Relationships
Lyrics
Hey, whatcha doin' now? 'Cause I wanna know
Expressing curiosity about the current activity and a desire to know.
Hey, whatcha thinkin' about? 'Cause I think I know
Inquiring about thoughts and suggesting an understanding of them.
But I'm takin' it slow
Stating an intention to proceed slowly in a situation.
Hey, when you goin' out? 'Cause I wanna go
Expressing a wish to accompany someone when they go out.
Why you talkin' so loud? When you know I'm sold
Questioning the reason for speaking loudly when a certain knowledge is assumed.
But I'm takin' it slow
Reiterating the intention to take things at a measured pace.
Pity be the one who jumps before the starting gun
Expressing caution against impulsive actions before a significant event starts.
But I won't stand idle, and let you go home with a nameless rival
Asserting an unwillingness to passively allow someone to leave with an unnamed competitor.
No never again
Emphasizing a commitment to not let a similar situation happen again.
Hey, why you feelin' down? Let your colors show
Encouraging the expression of emotions when feeling low and displaying one's true self.
To hell with this creeping doubt when you know you're gold
Rejecting doubts and affirming self-worth, despite uncertainties.
But I'm takin' it slow
Reiterating the commitment to a slow and deliberate approach.
Hey, when you comin' 'round? 'Cause I'm at your door
Asking about the arrival of someone at the speaker's location.
And do you hear that sound? 'Cause you've heard it before
Noticing a familiar sound and suggesting a previous encounter with it.
Me takin' it slow
Affirming the continuation of a deliberate and unhurried pace.
Pity be the one who jumps before the starting gun
Repeating the caution against premature actions before a significant event.
But I won't stand idle, and let you go home with a nameless rival
Reaffirming the determination to avoid allowing someone to leave with an unnamed competitor.
No never again
Restating the commitment to avoid a repeat of a similar situation.
Hey, whatcha doin' now? 'Cause I wanna know
Repeating the initial inquiry about the current activity.
Hey, whatcha thinkin' about? 'Cause I think I know
Reiterating the inquiry about thoughts and expressing a willingness to understand.
But I'm takin' it slow
Emphasizing the continued intention to take things slowly.
Hey, when you goin' out? 'Cause I wanna go
Expressing a desire to join someone when they go out.
Why you talkin' so loud? When you know I'm sold
Questioning the need for speaking loudly when the speaker's intentions are clear.
But I'm takin' it slow
Reaffirming the commitment to a measured and deliberate pace.
Pity be the one who jumps before the starting gun
Reiterating the caution against impulsive actions before a significant event.
But I won't stand idle, and let you go home with a nameless rival
Asserting a refusal to passively allow someone to leave with an unnamed rival.
No never again
Reaffirming the determination to prevent a recurrence of a similar situation.
Nuh-uh, no never again
Rejecting the possibility of a repeated occurrence.
