Take It Slow
Navigating Love's Maze: Jennifer Jess's 'Take It Slow' Reflections
Lyrics
I had a perfect picture, but I feel like I never saw it clearly
I had an idealized perception, but it became unclear.
I made you the center of my world
You became the focal point of my life.
The picture started getting blurry
The image started becoming unclear or distorted.
I gave you all of me, but I feel like I was given out
I gave my all, but it feels like I received little in return.
I lost myself, had to leave to be found
I lost my true self, had to leave to rediscover it.
I didn't have the patience
Impatience prevented a deeper understanding.
Now I'm awake in the middle of the night
I am now awake and troubled in the middle of the night.
I didn't want to face it
Avoiding confronting the truth.
A broken heart is what it's looking like, cause
Experiencing heartbreak.
I loved you in a hurry
I rushed into loving you.
Took a chance cause I was lonely
Took a chance because of loneliness.
I loved you you in a hurry
Rushed love due to a need for companionship.
Cause I needed someone to hold me
Sought someone to hold me.
Ever Since I
Continuing from the past.
I Loved you in a hurry
Rushed love, but now I choose to...
I take it slow
Take it slow.
Woke up and walked around this room
Reflecting on the room and its changed atmosphere.
It used to feel so inviting
The room used to be welcoming.
I'll keep the memories of all the times when we weren't fighting
Keeping positive memories when we weren't in conflict.
If I could've taken the time to realize when our time ran out
If I could have realized when our time together ended.
Long ago, when you broke me down
Reflecting on a past heartbreak.
I didn't have the patience, patience, patience
Impatience led to a love without a solid foundation.
So I built a love without a foundation
Avoiding facing the reality of the situation.
I didn't want to face it, face it, face it
It wasn't true love but infatuation.
It wasn't real love but infatuation
Rushed into loving without understanding.
I loved you in a hurry
Took a chance due to loneliness.
Took a chance cause I was lonely
Rushed love for the need of companionship.
I loved you in a hurry
Seeking someone to hold me.
Cause I needed someone to hold me
Continuing from the past.
Ever Since I
Rushed love, but now I choose to...
I Loved you in a hurry
Take it slow.
I take it slow
Choosing to proceed cautiously.
I've been afraid to look at myself in the mirror
Fearful of self-reflection.
See I put you first so I wouldn't see her
Putting the person first to avoid facing oneself.
I loved you in a hurry
Rushed love due to loneliness.
Took a chance cause I was lonely
Took a chance for companionship.
I loved you in a hurry
Rushed love seeking emotional support.
Cause I needed someone to hold me
Seeking someone to hold me.
Ever Since I
Continuing from the past.
I Loved you in a hurry
Rushed love, but now I choose to...
I'll take it slow, slow, slow
Take it slow.
I'll take it slow, slow, slow
Emphasizing the decision to take things slowly.
I'll take it slow, slow, slow
Reiteration of choosing a gradual approach.
I take it slow
Commitment to taking things slowly.
