Take Your Time
Marian Hill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know just what you're thinking
This one's ripe for the picking
See me strut with my shirt low
See your eyes as they follow

You been thinking one thing
Let me tell you some thing you should keep in mind
If you wanna touch it, baby don't you rush it
Let me take your time

If you wanna touch it, boy just lay low
Baby don't you rush it, till I say you're mine
Just take your time
If you wanna touch it, boy just lay low
Baby don't you rush it, till I say you're mine
Just take your time

Think you know what you're doing
Fingers brush and you're ruined
Feel your heart as it races
So much fun in the chasing

Thought you wanted one thing,
Now you're wanting something harder to define
Boy I know the feeling, 'cause you got me reeling
Let me take your time

If you wanna touch it, boy just lay low
Baby don't you rush it, till I say you're mine
Just take your time
If you wanna touch it, boy just lay low
Baby don't you rush it, till I say you're mine
Just take your time

Melting on the floor
Melt you to your core
Touch me like a violin
And feel me vibrate on your skin
I don't wanna go
Won't you stay awhile?

If you wanna touch it, boy just lay low
Baby don't you rush it, till I say you're mine
Just take your time
If you wanna touch it, boy just lay low




Baby don't you rush it, till I say you're mine
Just take your time
