Slow Love
Michael Alvarado Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See me, I'm nervous
What did it take to deserve this
Beautiful love, it's perfect
Baby without you I'm worthless
But you gotta know it takes service
Love is real without purchase
And I'd do nothing to hurt this
I knew it was love from the first kiss

Take it easy
It dont take a lot to please me
I'm forever yours

So sit back, relax, and take it slow
We ain't got too far to go
Before we make it
My heart is yours for the taking
So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show
We ain't got too far to go
Before we make it
My heart is yours for the taking
But please don't break it

Baby I want you
I want my body to haunt you
I want my lips to be on you
Cuz nobody does it like I do
I am searching for the real you
Hands are aching to feel you
And I just wanna be near you
Cuz nobody does it like you do

Take it easy
It dont take a lot to please me
I'm forever yours

So sit back, relax, and take it slow
We ain't got too far to go
Before we make it
My heart is yours for the taking

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show
We ain't got too far to go
Before we make it
My heart is yours for the taking

So sit back, relax, and take it slow
We ain't got too far to go
Before we make it
My heart is yours for the taking
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show
We ain't got too far to go
Before we make it




My heart is yours for the taking
But please don't break it
