Slow
Calvy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow
Usually I can hardly wait up for one night
But for a man like you I p-pause and I might do it right
I heard that fools, they rush right on in
That ain’t got not nothing to do between me and him, me and him
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow, boy
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow
Not that it’s any of their business, but…
I fuckin’ want you
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow
And you got trauma, I got trauma
But that shit matches so we don’t let it bother
And I’ve never been one to run away from the fear
I heard that fools, they rush right on in
That ain’t got not nothing to do between me and him, me and him
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow, boy
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow
Not that it’s any of their business, but…
I fuckin’ want you
You can tell your friends that we’re taking it slow, it slow, it slow
But I think it’s speeding up now
Speed it, speed it, speed it, speed it up
Maybe we could slow it down
But I think it’s speeding up now
Speed it, speed it, speed it, speed it up
Speed it up, Speed it up
