[Verse 1]
Do you remember the very first time
We had breakfast but you were not mine?
You made eyes at me the whole time
But I'm slow, I didn't realise

[Refrain]
Please slow it down
Please slow it down

[Verse 2]
You just sat biding your time
So patient till I realised
Red cheeks and lingering eyes
Was fucking cold, we stayed inside

[Refrain]
Please slow it down
Please slow it down
I took a breath and looked around
Please slow it down

[Verse 3]
I'll never forget the time
You told me that you were mine
Pushed me up against a bathroom stall
I told you that's not how I roll
Played a show and packed up my stuff
Forget bus call, I am off

[Chorus]
'Cause I need you now
I need you now
I took a breath and looked around
I need you now

[Post-Chorus]
I want you, I need you, I have to (I have to)
Have you where I can see you
I want you, I need you, I have to (I have to)
Have you where I can see you

[Bridge]
'Cause you slow me down
You slow me down
You slow me down
You slow me down

[Verse 4]
Now I get to see you every day
Smile like a creep in the morning
Till you open your eyes and say
For fucks sake, please go away

[Chorus]
But I need you now
I need you now

[Post-Chorus]
I want you, I need you, I have to (I have to)
Have you where I can see you
I want you, I need you, I have to (I have to)
Have you where I can see you
'Cause you slow me down
