She's in the mood to love a guy.
And we go down slowly
As we go down slowly.
Afternoon, chill with ease.
I want some more of
As we go down slowly.
And we go down slowly.
I said, I love that girl,
She's all I need.
A natural high, she's giving me.
As we go down slowly.
And we go down slowly.

The lyrics of Max Sedgley's song "Slowly" describe a summer romance in which the two people involved spend lazy afternoons together, enjoying each other's company and engaging in sensual activities. The lyrics suggest a deep connection between the two individuals, with the singer proclaiming that he loves the girl and that she provides him with a natural high. The overall tone of the song is one of relaxation and sensuality, with the repeated phrase "And we go down slowly" emphasizing the slow pace of the summer days and the gradual descent into physical intimacy.
Throughout the song, Sedgley uses imagery that evokes the elements of nature, further emphasizing the organic and primal nature of the couple's relationship. He sings about the sun being high, the earth to touch, and the air to rise - all elements that are fundamental to life and love. This imagery also serves to connect the couple's relationship to the larger world around them, suggesting that their love is part of a larger cosmic dance.
The repeated chorus of "Love, ah-huh, ow" reinforces the joy and pleasure that the couple experiences as they spend time together. The final verse of the song, in which Sedgley proclaims that "Ecstasy is in the air" and "Summer nights made/For loving", further emphasizes the sensual and hedonistic nature of the summer relationship.

The first time I tried ecstasy my friend played this song and it engrained into my mind body and soul and I had to play it on repeat for an hour. Ever since I can't hear this song without it making me overly overwhelmingly happy
@JohnnyEscopeta
I can't either, and I haven't tried ecstasy. It's this song!!
@monheiss1572
