Slow Down
Love's Pace: Stan Walker's 'Slow Down' Unveils the Dance of Patience
Lyrics
You're a keeper, I'm a keeper, you can stay here with me
You and I are valuable, and I want you to stay with me.
Maybe a believer or is this another dream
Uncertainty about whether this connection is real or just a dream.
Waiting for a call up, I don't wanna wake up
Waiting anxiously for a signal or confirmation, hesitant to wake up to reality.
We gonna get caught up, I just gotta stay up
Fear of getting too involved, but determined to stay awake and aware.
Am I moving a little too fast
Questioning if the relationship is progressing too quickly.
Am I moving a little too fast
-I gotta slow down
Acknowledging the need to slow down and not rush ahead in the relationship.
I keep running ahead
-I gotta slow down
-I keep running ahead
-Oh na na na
Reiterating the need to slow down, expressed with musical refrains.
Woah na na na
-I gotta slow down
-I keep running ahead
-I'm getting ready for you if you're feeling me
Preparing for a relationship with the listener if there is mutual interest.
But I don't wanna make you do anything
Expressing a desire not to pressure or force the listener into anything.
I got to be patient
Acknowledging the importance of patience, which may not come naturally.
But that's not a gift of mine
Admitting that patience is not a strong suit.
And you say cool down a place for me little darling
Someone reassures the singer to calm down and promises a place in their life.
Got everything you need when you want it
Assuring the singer that all they need is available whenever they want it.
Got me waiting for a green light
Awaiting permission or a signal to proceed, possibly hesitant.
I already know what you like
The singer already knows the listener's preferences.
Contemplating but I just might come through
Considering the possibility of taking a step forward in the relationship.
And if I do I'll spend a night or two
Contemplating spending time together but unsure about committing.
But it feels like I'm running ahead
Feeling like the relationship is progressing too quickly, similar to earlier lines.
