Days are long, nights are cold, nobody said that love grows old

Take your time, don't move too fast, have a little fun and make it last

Granddaddy swore by firm handshakes, said don't bet on hearts you ain't willing to break

Slow burnin' love ain't a thing you chase, it's a wildfire startin' at its own damn pace

And all I know, is the more you let it settle then the more it seems to grow

All I know, is whether or not you understand, the workings of a woman confound a man

Take it slow, let love unwind, every little moment leaves a mark in time

Mama always warned about a ramblin' man, and I swore I'd stay and I meant it then

Porch lights on but the door won't swing, and I'm wearin' that promise like a broken ring

And all I know, is the more you let it settle and the more it seems to grow

All I know, is whether or not you understand, the workings of a woman confound a man

Let it hang like a song unsung, and what's meant to be never comes undone

And all I know, is the more you let it settle then the more it seems to grow

All I know, is whether not you understand, the workings of a woman confound a man

Take it slow, let love unwind, every little moment leaves a mark in time
