Lyrics

Dancing Sweet and Slow

The word’s out it’s all over town another lover let you down
Too hot too fast and you got burned
So I can understand why you might be just a little bit gun shy
You’re not in the mood to live and learn

I’ve been there before afraid to open the next door
Nothing to risk and no way to hurt my pride
I’m just feeling lonely no I don’t wanna be your one and only
But I’ve just been thinking I’m right here and I’m by your side

And are you thinking the same thing
Are you tugging on the same string
Then pull me in and let yourself go
We’ll be dancing sweet and slow

Sometimes taking that first step
Feels like the rope is around your neck
I’m not trying to tighten that knot
Not getting down on my knees
Ain’t no guarantees
I just want to give you all that I got

Are you thinking the same thing
Are you tugging on the same string
Then pull me in and let yourself go
We’ll be dancing sweet and slow

I know what I’m feeling are you feeling the same way
Take your time don’t you hurry
Close your eyes and let your body gently sway

(Instrumental verse)

We’ve been friends for a long time
Most times we get along just fine
It’s scary to think we could throw it all away
Gotta try or we’ll never know if this thing could ever grow
So hang on tight if you’re going my way

Are you thinking the same thing
Are you tugging on the same string
Then pull me in and let yourself go
We’ll be dancing sweet and slow

Are you thinking the same thing
Are you tugging on the same string
Then pull me in and let yourself go
