[Verse 1]
I don't wanna make the same mistakes
She made before
Cause, we both know how easy it could be
To go down that road
I'm not sayin' I'm not ready, baby
To be the girl you need

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But, I can't end up like all of them
End up just like the rest
Better believe it

[Chorus]
I don't wanna rush it, no
And wake up in an empty bed
If we took our time, went slow
Promise not to get enough
Of me and you together
And, not ever let it fade, no
On my heart (on my heart), never change (never change)
I promise you, boy

[Verse 2]
You don't wanna make the same mistakes
He made before
Cause, I ain't lyin'
When I say that I don't wanna
Have to see you go
Don't you worry 'bout the past, babe
Cause, it's the past for a reason

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I won't let you end up like all of them
End up just like the rest
You better believe it

[Chorus]
I don't wanna rush it, no
And wake up in an empty bed
If we took our time, went slow
Promise not to get enough
Of me and you together
And, not ever let it fade, no
On my heart (on my heart), never change (never change)
I promise you, boy

[Bridge]
Don't wanna burn it out
If this is real
We need to work with what we feel
My love, so simple
Forever, more than a night
Too soon to feel so right
Should I stay or say goodnight?
Gotta say what you mean
If you're gonna promise it to me
[Chorus]
I don't wanna rush it, no
And wake up in an empty bed
If we took our time, went slow
Promise not to get enough
Of me and you together
And, not ever let it fade, no
On my heart (on my heart), never change (never change)
I promise you, boy
