Slowly
Sedgley Max Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Summertime, the sun is high.
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
Your cootchy tease.

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.

Fire love
Aqua mind
Earth to touch
Air to Rise

Fire love
Aqua mind
Earth to touch
Air to Rise

Slowly.
Slowly.

Love, ah-huh, ow.
Love, ah-huh, ow.
Love, ah-huh, ow.

Ecstasy is in the air.
Summer nights made
For loving, yeah.
Ecstasy is in the air.
Summer nights made
For loving, yeah.

Slowly.

As we go down slowly.
And we go down slowly.





As we go down slowly.
And we go down, slowly.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sedgley Max's song Slowly exude a sense of heat and sensuality that are as fitting for a summer romance as for a timeless love affair. The first couple of lines, "Summertime, the sun is high/She's in the mood to love a guy," perfectly encapsulate the carefree, sensual mood of the song. The repetition of "as we go down slowly" adds to the sense of languidness and ease that is characteristic of summertime flings. The second verse, "Afternoon, chill with ease/I want some more of your cootchy tease," is especially spicy, highlighting the playful yet titillating nature of a new romance.


The third verse takes on a more earnest tone, with the singer proclaiming "I love that girl/She's all I need/A natural high, she's giving me." This shift in tone emphasizes the deeper emotional connection that can also underlie a sizzling summer romance. The chorus repeats the four elemental words - fire, air, water, earth - which could be interpreted as an allusion to the mystical powers of love, as well as the natural forces that surround and embody us.


The song's bridge is perhaps the most direct in terms of its message: "Ecstasy is in the air/Summer nights made for loving." This line is also repeated in the final chorus, solidifying the idea that summer lovin' is a time-honored and cherished tradition. The overall effect of the lyrics, then, is to channel a kind of nostalgic warmth and passion that is irresistible, no matter the circumstances.

I was driving a car when I heard this on radio for the first time. I pulled over the car, did Shazam and then started playing on repeat for rest of my journey.. Lovely song!

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

That is a very good outcome!!
