Slow
Sun Glitters feat. Sara Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You wait up for me I don't wake up for you
Would you like the company or are you sick of me
When your love lets you go you only want love more
Even when love wasn't what you were looking for

Speak slow, tell me love where do we go... ah ah
Where do we go...ah ah, where do we go
Break down plead your case I don't know what to say
I leave my heart all this pain and now I'm at it all again

On these streets that I leave for weeks on end who's to blame
When you want love doesn't matter what you're looking for
Speak slow, tell me love where do we go... ah ah
Where do we go... ah ah, where do we go

So far away and I just can't see you I'm
So far along and I just don't need you
I am so ah-alone, so ah-alone
When your love lets you go you only want love more





Even when love wasn't what you were looking for

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sun Glitters feat. Sara's song Slow depict the struggles and uncertainties of romantic relationships. The first two lines suggest a lack of synchronization between the lovers' schedules and possibly, their expectations from the relationship. The singer acknowledges the possibility of the partner being tired of their company but still craves for their love. The refrain "When your love lets you go, you only want love more" speaks of the irony of human nature where the more someone loses something, the more they want it.


The following lines follow a conversation between the lovers, where one person seems to be seeking answers "Speak slow, tell me love where do we go... ah ah" to move forward in the relationship while the other person is uncertain and needing some persuasion "Break down plead your case I don't know what to say". The lyrics also hint at the physical distance between the lovers "On these streets that I leave for weeks on end who's to blame" possibly making the relationship even more challenging.


The final lines of this song emphasize the feeling of loneliness even when in love. The singer yet again highlights the contradiction of human nature that we may not need someone but still desire their presence "So far along and I just don't need you" and sometimes feel lonely even when with them "I am so ah-alone, so ah-alone". The song ends with the same line as the beginning reference to the paradox of wanting more love even when not actively seeking it.

I love your channel and the music you select. BIG like for you and Sun Glitters <3 :)

i don't understand why most of you guys don't accept dislikes. Be realistic, there are different opinions and they are basically no bad thing. IT MAKES U NOT SPECIAL IF U ONLY HAVE LIKES. So Talk in a mood where this has no meaning. Talk objectively. Btw I rly like the songs you upload. Keep up your great work!
