Karina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'm happy that we met.
Don't think that I'm not interested.
I'm just playing hard to get
So much about this crazy game they call love
That I'm trying to understand,
So could you be my best friend,
Why can't I love you in slow motion,
Take my time,
Take away the pressure on my mind
Really get to know you
But rewind
Wanna love you in slow motion
Why can't I?
You seem to know just what you want
And I like your confidence
Some things a girl should never rush
Cause If you do you hurt yourself
So much about this crazy game they call love
That I'm trying to understand,
So could you be my best friend,
Before you call yourself my man
Why can't I love you in slow motion,
Take my time,
Take away the pressure on my mind
Really get to know you
But rewind
Wanna love you in slow motion
Why can't I?
I'm too young for tears in the night
And it's to soon for this to be right
Don't wanna mess with your pride
The questions not when but why
Why can't I love you in slow motion,
Take my time,
Take away the pressure on my mind
Really get to know you
But rewind
Wanna love you in slow motion
Why can't I?
The song "Slow Motion" by Karina is about a woman who is interested in a man but wants to take things slow. She acknowledges that the man has been calling her and they have met, but she doesn't want to rush into a relationship. She explains that she's playing hard to get and isn't uninterested. The lyrics express her confusion about the game of love and trying to understand it. She asks if the man could be her best friend before they take it to the next level.
The chorus is the most memorable part of the song, where Karina asks why she can't love him in slow motion. She wants to take her time, with no pressure on her mind, to really get to know him instead of rushing. She concludes that she doesn't want to cause any tears or mess with his pride, and questions why it can't be in slow motion.
Line by Line Meaning
I know that you've been calling me,
I am aware of your efforts to contact me,
And I'm happy that we met.
Meeting you has brought some joy to my life,
Don't think that I'm not interested.
Please don't think I have no interest in you,
I'm just playing hard to get
I'm simply making it difficult for you to pursue me,
So much about this crazy game they call love
There's so much about love that I'm trying to understand,
That I'm trying to understand,
It is something which I still can't quite figure out,
So could you be my best friend,
Would you mind being my closest confidant and ally,
Before you call yourself my man
Before we commit to a romantic relationship,
Why can't I love you in slow motion,
Why can't we take things slowly and allow love to develop at its own pace?
Take my time,
I want to take things at a leisurely pace without rushing anything,
Take away the pressure on my mind
I'm feeling a lot of pressure and would like it to be removed,
Really get to know you
I want to get to know you on a deep level,
But rewind
I wish I could go back in time so as to make better decisions,
Wanna love you in slow motion
I desire to love you gradually, without any rush,
You seem to know just what you want
I can tell that you have a clear idea of what you desire,
And I like your confidence
I appreciate your self-assurance and certainty,
Some things a girl should never rush
Some matters cannot be fast-tracked, especially by women,
Cause If you do you hurt yourself
Rushing things may cause emotional harm and pain to oneself,
I'm too young for tears in the night
I'm not inclined to shed tears due to heartbreak at this early stage in life,
And it's to soon for this to be right
It is still early to declare this as the right relationship,
Don't wanna mess with your pride
I do not intend to strip you of your dignity or worth,
The questions not when but why
I'm not concerned with the time, but rather the reason behind things,
