[Verse 1]
The pieces of our past are scattered here
And yet, I know there's still a chance
Don't rush the night, let's take our time this time
This could be our final dance

[Pre-Chorus]
But maybe this time we'll be smarter than before
And know we can't relive the past
Step by step by step cautiously until we're sure
That we can make the magic last

[Chorus]
Little by little, a little by little tonight
If we take our time this time, we'll get it right
Little by little, a little by little tonight (ooh)
Baby, don't hurry, there's a ticket to paradise
A little by little tonight, a little by little tonight

[Verse 2]
They said that we would make the perfect pair, huh
We showed them how wrong they can be
But here we are again, just like before
[?] total mystery

[Pre-Chorus]
But maybe this time we'll be smarter than before
And know we can't relive the past
Step by step by step cautiously until we're sure
That we can make the magic last (yeah)
[Chorus]
Little by little, a little by little tonight (hey)
If we take our time this time, we'll get it right
A little by little, a little by little tonight
Baby, don't hurry, there's a ticket to paradise
A little by little tonight, a little by little tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
Step by step by step cautiously until we're sure
That we can make the magic last (hey, yeah)

[Chorus]
Little by little, a little by little tonight (ooh)
If we take our time this time, we'll get it right (hey, yeah)
Little by little, a little by little tonight (uh-huh)
Baby, don't hurry, there's a ticket to paradise
A little by little tonight, a little by little tonight

[Outro]
Little by little, a little by little tonight
Babe, we're gonna make it tonight (hey, hey)
Little by little, a little by little tonight
