[Verse 1] [F1] You came in with rain on your coat And a crack in your smile [F2] I had my own little storm Parked deep in my style [F1] We talked in the corner booth Where the sugar bowl slept [F2] You said, "I don't trust the dawn" I said, "I never did" [Pre-Chorus] [F1] But your hand found mine Like it knew the route [F2] Slow as a needle Pulling a seam back out [F1] And the whole room faded Just a little more [F2] When you said my name Like you were sure [Chorus] [F1+F2] Slow romance We made it through Slow romance Me and you [F1] One small step At a time [F2] You healed your past I mended mine [F1+F2] Slow romance Don't let go Slow romance We learn to glow [Verse 2] [F1] You brought a worn-out record I brought a second chance [F2] We spun our doubts In a tired old dance [F1] Some nights the words came easy Some nights they hid [F2] But you stayed at the table And I stayed in it [F1] We learned how to laugh At the things that bruise [F2] How to leave the door open When the fear moved through [Pre-Chorus] [F1] And your eyes said more Than your mouth could frame [F2] I was halfway gone When you called my name [F1] No grand parade Just a steady shore [F2] Two hearts learning What patience is for [Chorus] [F1+F2] Slow romance We made it through Slow romance Me and you [F1] One small step At a time [F2] You healed your past I mended mine [F1+F2] Slow romance Don't let go Slow romance We learn to glow [Bridge] [F1] If the night gets sharp And the doubts come back [F2] We'll ride them out On the same old track [F1] No need to rush No need to pretend [F2] Love can begin Where the broken bend [Instrumental] [Saxophone solo] [Final Chorus] [F1+F2] Slow romance We made it through Slow romance Me and you [F1] One small step At a time [F2] You healed your past I mended mine [F1+F2] Slow romance Stay close now Slow romance We know how [F1] To stay [F2] To trust [F1+F2] Slow romance It's enough
