Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Oh, oh

I prefer to go slowly
My heart is a test
You want to skip the steps
I prefer to go slowly
Because my heart is a wreck
That has already been shipwrecked
I've been lying to myself all this time

I've known drama elsewhere
I won't do the same with you
Because my pain is blood red
I prefer the fire that burns
Than a spark with you

I'm going to be honest with you
Don't promise me the stars
Or weekends in paradise
No, that's not how life is
If the weather is good in your heart
Make me laugh until morning
Catch up with the tears of my nights

I will tell you one day "I love you"
But if you love me, you'll wait for it
I'll heal from my disease
(Yes, love is a disease)
There's a smell of mistrust
Like a taste of feeling
I prefer to go slowly

My heart is a test
You want to skip the steps
I prefer to go slowly
Because my heart is a wreck
That has already been shipwrecked
I've been lying to myself all this time
I've known drama elsewhere
I won't do the same with you
Because my pain is blood red
I prefer the fire that burns
Than a spark with you

Slow down, you're going too fast
My feelings are adrift
If my past paralyzes me, I know
That only you will make the difference
I've crossed names off my list

Hey, others before you have hurt me
My heart under anesthesia
You'll have to give me time
No, I don't want it now
To believe again, I'm trying
But let me heal
I don't want you to be my bandage

I prefer to go slowly
My heart is a test
You want to skip the steps
I prefer to go slowly
Because my heart is a wreck
That has already been shipwrecked
I've been lying to myself all this time

I've known drama elsewhere
I won't do the same with you
Because my pain is blood red
I prefer the fire that burns
Than a spark with you, eh

I prefer to go slowly
I prefer to go slowly
Because my pain is blood red

I prefer to go slowly
