[Verse 1]
She says, "You always smell like cigarettes
And there's always whiskey on your breath
But you're the best that I can do
And I, I think I love you"

[Chorus]
So if you want me to slow down
Tell me to slow down, oh
Now if you want me to slow down
Just tell me to slow down
Tell me to slow down
'Cause I want to be loved
'Cause I want to be loved

[Verse 2]
She says, "You don't love me, you just love sex
But I can't wait around for something better than this
'Cause you're the best that I can do
And I, I wish I could leave you"

[Chorus]
Now if you want me to slow down
Just tell me to slow down
Just tell me to slow down
'Cause I want to be loved
'Cause I want to be loved
Yes, I want to be loved
Yes, I wanna be loved
