Take It Slow

Up on this here hilltop

I’m not feeling so alone

I haven’t felt a single teardrop

Ever since I found my home

You know I can’t sleep in silence,

but I’m glad I can sleep sober

It’s damn sure cold in the wintertime

Wake me up when it’s all over

I’ve found my home in a girl I’d never had known

If I didn’t hear the Lord telling me to go

Though I may not show

How my heart has surely grown

For a girl who looks both ways before crossing the road

I wanna stick around as long as I can, so don’t run off without me, just take it slow

Well you tell me you like shooting stars

And how they fly across the sky

Well you know I like old guitars

Because they keep my soul alive

A broken heart and half-written songs

Is all I had to my name

But you brought me out of a cold, cold storm

And took me as I came

I’ve found my home in a girl I’d never had known

If I didn’t hear the Lord telling me to go

Though I may not show

How my heart has surely grown

For a girl who looks both ways before crossing the road

I wanna stick around as long as I can, so don’t run off without me, just take it slow
