[Intro]
Background Vocals:
Mmmmm…
Yeah…
Oohhh…
Lead:
Don’t rush…
We got time…
[Verse 1]
I know you’re excited,
I can hear it in your voice.
Talking ‘bout tomorrow,
Before we’ve made a choice.
And I ain’t saying no,
Baby, don’t get me wrong.
I just wanna make sure
We’re building something strong.
‘Cause these days everybody’s moving fast,
Trying to make forever happen overnight.
But I want something that’ll last,
Not something that’s gone by morning light.
[Background Vocals]
(Take your time…)
Take your time…
(Don’t rush it…)
Don’t rush it…
[Pre-Chorus]
Let’s learn each other’s favorite songs,
The things that make us laugh.
The dreams we don’t tell everybody,
The stories from our past.
Before we start making promises,
Let’s see where this can go.
[Chorus]
Take your time with me…
I ain’t going nowhere.
Let’s be friends first,
Build some trust first,
Show me that you care.
Take your time with me…
Let’s let it happen naturally.
If it’s real today,
It’ll still be real
A few months from now, you’ll see.
[Background Vocals]
(Take your time…)
Take your time…
(With me…)
With me…
[Verse 2]
I don’t need fancy dinners,
Or somebody moving too fast.
I need consistency,
Something that’s built to last.
Let’s talk until the sunrise,
Learn what makes us who we are.
Let’s become best friends first,
Then maybe we can reach the stars.
[Background Vocals]
(Best friends…)
Best friends…
(Friends first…)
Friends first…
[Bridge]
See, my heart ain’t closed,
I’m just being careful.
I’ve been hurt before,
Now I’m being mindful.
And if you’re really serious,
Then you’ll understand.
The right kind of love
Doesn’t need a rush plan.

[Final Chorus]
Take your time with me…
Let’s write our story slow.
No pressure,
No games,
Just seeing where it goes.
Take your time with me…
Because if this is meant to be,
Then what’s for us
Will always find its way,
Naturally.
