Take It Slow
Roark Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take it slow
We're headed home
There's no one else, you see

The evening sun
About to go
This body's old, I need...
Oh, the place you want to go
Whisper them to me
Oh, the innocence you hold
Is falling at your feet.

So, take it slow.
Make it so we're never out of time
No, you never have to go.
Take it slow, let me know
Everything feels right, deep inside your soul.

I turned down the sheets, and the shades
So no one else can see.
The radio bleeds a dream
As we fall asleep.

Oh, the place you want to go.
Whisper them to me.
Oh, the innocence you own
Is falling at your feet.

So take it slow.
Make it so we're never out of time
No, you never have to go.
Take it slow, let me know
Everything feels right, deep inside your soul.

We'll start a fire tonight
You find it hard to breathe.
Your eyes are so alive tonight
Deep beneath the sheets, just you and me

Take it slow.
Make it so we're never out of time
No, you never have to go.
Take it slow, let me know
Everything feels right, deep inside your soul.

Take it slow.




We're headed home.
There's no one else, you see.
