[Verse 1] You came in late With rain on your cuff Ordered the house red Said “take your time, love” I laughed too quick You looked away Like you knew my pulse Would drag all day Your spoon touched mine At the sugar dish Small as a match Still, it made a wish [Pre-Chorus] Easy now Let the room lean in No need to rush Let the night begin [Chorus] Slow dance, slow burn Don’t let go yet (don’t let go yet) Slow dance, slow burn Keep that promise quiet (keep it quiet) One more step One more look I’m learning you Line by line [Verse 2] You rolled your sleeve For the second glass Talked about your dog And your old jazz class I told you mine By the tram stop sign How I keep my keys And I lose my mind The band outside Hit a little groove You tapped the rim Like you had to move But you stayed right there With your patient grin Like a held-back note Trying to get in [Pre-Chorus] Easy now Let the room lean in No need to rush Let the night begin [Chorus] Slow dance, slow burn Don’t let go yet (don’t let go yet) Slow dance, slow burn Keep that promise quiet (keep it quiet) One more step One more look I’m learning you Line by line [Bridge] If you ask too soon It might break the spell So we trade small truths Like a favorite smell Your hand near mine Not quite, not yet That’s the kind of spark I don’t forget [Chorus] Slow dance, slow burn Don’t let go yet (don’t let go yet) Slow dance, slow burn Keep that promise quiet (keep it quiet) One more step One more look I’m learning you Line by line [Outro] Stay in the hush Where the soft things grow Slow romance That’s my favorite tempo
