Lyrics
She takes it deep to the heart right from the start she
Expressing emotional impact, suggesting a deep connection from the beginning.
Talks softly over a glass of wine.
Describing a moment of intimacy and conversation over wine.
Now and again she's more than a friend,
Hinting at a deeper connection beyond friendship.
Why don't You just throw me that line.
Asking for more commitment or a clear signal.
It would be great if she'd dedicate just a minute from Her precious time.
Desiring attention and time from the person.
I'll give it a while, but that's not my style, how is That a crime?
Expressing discomfort with waiting and questioning the validity of such expectations.
Everyone says that I'm wild.
Addressing perceptions of being wild or unconventional.
Pardon my French but I still know my child.
Asserting knowledge of one's own identity or child (metaphorically).
And that was the day I told her I needed some time.
Recalling the moment when the speaker needed space.
Well I began walking when she was still talking I'm Looking for that exit sign.
Walking away during a conversation, seeking an exit.
Pardon my face but I'm leaving no trace cause I Really haven't got the time.
Leaving without leaving a trace due to lack of time.
Well I began thinking and my heart is just sinking
Reflecting on thoughts and emotions, searching for a solution.
And I'm looking for that place to go.
Searching for a meaningful direction or purpose.
Isn't it sad that she'll treat you so bad,
Commenting on the sad reality of mistreatment without communication.
But you never really Let her know.
Highlighting the lack of communication about mistreatment.
And everyone says that she's crying.
Contrasting external perceptions with internal struggles.
But I can't forget all the time I spent trying.
Acknowledging efforts spent but not forgotten.
And that's the day I told her I needed some time I know,
Reiterating the need for space and time.
I know what it feels like to be alone.
Expressing understanding of the feeling of loneliness.
I know, I know what it feels like to be at home.
Acknowledging familiarity with the feeling of being at home.
I like, I like stopping to say hello.
Expressing enjoyment in small social interactions.
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?
Pondering the desire for a slower pace in life.
Why can't we take this slow?
Repeating the desire for a slower pace.
Well I've been through these phases,
Referring to life experiences and challenges.
I've walked Through these mazes.
Describing navigating through complex situations.
I'm sick and I'm little tired.
Expressing fatigue and weariness.
It sure isn't fair but I'm not aware of the patience that's required
Acknowledging the lack of awareness regarding needed patience.
If I could have kissed her every time that I missed Her
Reflecting on missed opportunities for affection.
I still would be out the door.
Questioning the effectiveness of expressing affection.
But now and again, I sure need a friend now isn't that What she's for?
Recognizing the need for friendship in difficult times.
And everyone says that I'm lying,
Addressing accusations of dishonesty.
But I can't forget all the times she spent crying.
Recalling the emotional toll of past events.
And that was the day I told her I needed some time.
Reiterating the need for personal space and time.
I know, I know what it feels like to be alone.
Empathizing with the feeling of loneliness.
I know, I know what it feels like to be at home.
Acknowledging familiarity with the feeling of being at home.
I like, I like stopping to say hello.
Expressing enjoyment in small social interactions.
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?
Pondering the desire for a slower pace in life.
Baby take it slow? It's my life. My life.
Repeating the desire for a slower pace.
Why can't we take it slow? Baby takes it slow
Reiterating the plea for a slower pace.
