Slowly (Unrefined)

Paula Menifee

Let's go slowly
Wanna be your one and only
And though we been keepin' it low-key
I still feel like you don't know me

So please go slowly
I'm trying so hard to stay focused
Just promise me this can't be broken off
Then, I like the pace that me goin on

It feels different this time
But the inclination to say it feels cliche
Like distance between skin is the only reason I feel this way
And I've practiced this speech so many times I feel like a preacher
Like a leech sucking love out of the closest body I find
And, yes, his presence gives me butterflies
But it feels more like redundancy
Like God is looking down at me
Repulsed by my naiveté

Like I've been lying in the arms of conversation
And calling it truth
Like creatures are flying inside of my stomach
And I've been naming it natural
Like I've been writing about raindrops and attention
and titling it "Thunder" and "Lightening" and
"Love"
And I wonder if that's why I never felt like enough before
But I think I need peace now
I'm tired of never laying down alone
And never feeling at home in my own body

And I know I'm not supposed to tell nobody
But I don't need butterflies
there are already other things inside of me
Old cocoons of men who promised garden and left
Who planted seeds but didn't quite see the growth in me

And I just need you to know that
I need you to show that
I need you to just slow it down a little

And let's go slowly
Wanna be your one and only
And though we been keepin' it low-key
I still feel like you don't know me

So let's go slowly
I'm trying so hard to stay focused
Just promise me this can't be broken off
Then, I like the pace that we goin on

And I like the way that you show it
And I like the way that you know
And I like the way that...
