Lyrics

You sure about this?
'Cause once I start
We're not rushin' nothin' tonight
I waited too long for you
For months I kept my distance
Even when you stood close by
Every time your hand brushed mine
I had to pull my thoughts aside
You'd lean in just a little, then step away again
And every quiet moment
Made the fire under my skin
Girl, I wanted you so bad
But I respected every line
'Cause a real man knows the difference
Between patience and desire
Now you're standin' in my doorway
With that look I recognize
And the way you say my name tonight
Got thunder in my chest tonight
You whisper, "Take it slow"
Like you already know
How long I've been holdin' all this inside my soul
Girl, you don't understand what you just unlocked in me
But trust me, baby, you about to see
I'm gonna take my time with you tonight
Slow enough to make the moment stay
Girl, you waited long enough for me
Now I'm about to make it worth the wait
Every place your body moves tonight
I'm learnin' like a brand new song
And if tonight's the first time I touch you
Baby, it won't be the last one
No, it won't be the last one
You move a little closer like you're testin' every breath
Eyes half-closed like you're feelin' what comes next
My hands move careful like your skin's rare gold
Girl, I'm readin' every signal your body's tryin' to show
I ain't rushin' through the moment, ain't no race tonight
'Cause the way you look at me right now, girl, that's worth the time
And every little shiver runnin' down your spine
Tells me everything I need to know, girl, what's on your mind
You said you trusted me with a smile so soft
Girl, you don't even know what that trust just cost
All the nights I imagined this moment right here
Now the real thing is finally here
I'm gonna take my time with you tonight
Slow enough to make the moment stay
Girl, you waited long enough for me
Now I'm about to make it worth the wait
Every place your body moves tonight
I'm learnin' like a brand new song
And if tonight's the first time I touch you
Baby, it won't be the last one
No, it won't be the last one
You sure about this?
You sure about this?
You sure about this?
You sure about this?
You sure about this?
You sure about this?
You sure about this?
