Slow Down
Racing Hearts and Forbidden Love: Slow Down by Melissa Quinn Fox
Lyrics
I wasn't looking this time I swear
I wasn't intentionally seeking a relationship this time.
But you came running in from nowhere
However, you unexpectedly entered my life.
Hit my heart and I didn't even care
You captured my heart, and I didn't mind the impact.
It's been so long since it felt so new
It's been a considerable time since I felt such freshness and novelty.
Waited forever for someone like you
I've waited patiently for someone like you.
Out of the dark something beautiful and true
From the darkness emerged something beautiful and genuine.
Making me crazy
Your actions are driving me to a state of madness.
Calling me baby
You affectionately refer to me as "baby."
Making me smile when you're not around
You bring joy to my life even when you're not physically present.
Slow down
A plea or advice to take things slowly.
I know I gotta
A recognition that there is a need to slow down.
Slow down
(Empty line, potentially emphasizing the need for reflection.)
Slow down girl you're heart is racing
A warning to the girl that her heart is beating too rapidly.
Way too fast
Expressing concern about the speed of emotions, uncertainty about the relationship's duration.
Who knows if this will last
An acknowledgment that the outcome is unknown.
But I can't hold back
Despite uncertainties, the speaker cannot restrain their feelings.
No and I can't slow down
An assertion that the speaker cannot slow down or hold back.
I'm always falling for the wrong ones
Admitting a pattern of falling for the wrong individuals in the past.
Love can make a girl wanna give up
Love has the power to make someone contemplate giving up.
But you don't stop when the road gets rough
Despite challenges, determination prevails when faced with adversity.
Everything changed when
A pivotal moment marked by the utterance of the speaker's name.
You said my name and
Recognition of the transformative effect of hearing one's name.
Maybe you're the one I've been waiting for
The possibility that the person might be the long-awaited significant other.
Slow down
A repetition of the plea or advice to slow down.
I know I gotta
A reaffirmation of the understanding that slowing down is necessary.
Slow down
(Empty line, potentially emphasizing the importance of this realization.)
Slow down girl you're heart is racing
A repetition of the warning about the girl's rapidly beating heart.
Way too fast
Reiterating the concern about the relationship's speed and uncertain future.
Who knows if this will last
Reinforcing the acknowledgment that the outcome is unknown.
But I can't hold back no
The inability to hold back emotions despite uncertainties.
And I can't slow down
A firm statement that the speaker cannot slow down.
I know I gotta slow down
A final acknowledgment of the imperative need to slow down.
I know I gotta slow down
A repeated recognition that there is a necessity to slow down.
