SLOW IT DOWN
(Gentle violin intro with Latin guitar — slow tempo)
(Breathy layered harmonies)
Intro (whisper)
Hmmm… slow it down…
Khaia…
Feel me…
Verse 1
I can still feel your hands against my skin
And the way you looked at me back then
Like desire mixed with something dangerous
Like one more second and we’d lose ourselves again
Your body moving closer into mine
Heat in the air and we forgot the time
The space between us kept getting smaller
And every second pulled me a little farther
Breath on my neck, pulling me underneath
Like you already knew exactly what I need
Your touch became my weakness
And for a moment I forgot to think
Pre-Chorus
And every little moment keeps replaying
Even now, I still feel it
Maybe we stayed too close that night
But I don’t wanna resist it
There’s a fire I can’t deny
And somehow you still stay on my mind
Chorus
Slow it down… say my name
Stay right here, make me wait
We both know what’s underneath
Still I stay… don’t pull away
Slow it down… pull me close
Like your silence says the most
Your touch and I lose control
Slow it down… move too slow
Verse 2
Your lips tracing stories on my skin
And suddenly I wanted all of it
Every second felt electric
Like silence turning into something different
I tell myself I should move on
But your memory keeps pulling me along
And every time I close my eyes
You come back like a favorite night
The room disappeared around us
Nothing left but the pull between us
You looked at me and I gave in
Like we both knew where this had been
Bridge (soft harmonies building)
Your hands move like a secret
Like they already know my skin
Every second stretched between us
Like giving in without giving in
Stay close enough to feel it
Close enough to change my mind
Say my name into the silence
And leave the rest undefined
Your touch gets underneath my skin
Pull me closer, let the moment win
There’s a tension I can’t deny
Every look pulls me in every time
You move and I move with you
Like I’m lost but don’t wanna be found
We both know where this could lead
Still I stay right here now
Slow it down…
Hold me close…
Slow it down…
Final Chorus
Slow it down… say my name
Stay right here, make me wait
We both know what’s underneath
Still I stay… don’t pull away
Slow it down… pull me close
Like your silence says the most
Your touch and I lose control
Slow it down… don’t let go
Outro (violin + breath harmonies fading)
Hmmm… slow it down…
Stay a little longer…
Until the memory disappears…
Hmmm…
Feel me…
Slow it down…
