Lombardo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you really wanna go outside, or come real slow, baby ooh
Do you wanna hold my hand, just one more time, darlin' darlin'
Do you wanna be my one and only - only woman and come real slow, baby ooh
I think we oughta go outside, just one more time darlin' darlin' and come real slow
I think we oughta go outside, just one more time darlin' darlin' and come real slow
Would you like it if I never told another single lie
Never argued, bickered, just simply compromised
Or would you like it if you laid your head down in the sunshine

Just one more time in my bedroom
Not your headroom, ooh
Do you wanna go outside, or come real slow, baby ooh
Do you wanna hold my hand, just one more damn time, baby ooh
Do you wanna be my one and only - only woman and come real slow, darlin'
I think we oughta go outside, just one more time baby, ooh and come real slow
Would you like it if ya never dated any other guys
Or would you like it if one day I would call you my wife
Or would you like it if I called you my one and only
One and only one and only one and only one and only one
And only one and only one and only

One and only one and only one and only one and only one
And only one and only one and only one and only ooh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lombardo's song "Slow" seem to be a plea for a deeper connection and commitment between two people. The opening line of "Do you really wanna go outside, or come real slow" seems to suggest that the singer is asking the other person whether they want to dive deeper into their relationship and explore it more fully, or whether they want to take things slow and steady.

The chorus repeats the question of whether the other person wants to be the singer's "one and only" and "come real slow." There is a sense of urgency and desperation in the repetition of this question, as if the singer is afraid that the other person will reject them if they don't take the relationship to the next level.

The second verse adds more detail to the image of a perfect relationship. The singer suggests that they could have a relationship without lying or fighting, and that they could spend lazy days together in the sunshine. The reference to "my bedroom, not your headroom" suggests that the singer wants the other person to feel completely comfortable and at home with them.

Overall, "Slow" seems to be a love song about two people who want to be together deeply, but who may be afraid to take the next step. The repeated question of whether the other person wants to be the singer's "one and only" suggests a fear of rejection, but the lyrics also offer a vision of a perfect relationship, filled with honesty and love.
