lyrics

Verse1:
Usually the type to send the friend request first
But let’s take a second to breathe and figure out what best works
A simple text from you is enough to get me through the day
Cause I gotta work on myself before we even make a way
To anything that even resembles a couple’s dedication
Not tryna put you through long distance separation
I know you already miss me and I already miss you
Just know I still think about the very first time I kissed you
Teach me everything about you that you’re willing to share
In hopes that I can share my all with you and learn to always be there
If you got issues with trust, trust we can work it out
Plus you don’t gotta ask who this verse is about
But I’m kinda cute so they say it’s hard to trust
And I dress fresh to death making ladies want to lust,
But I ain’t like that, I ain’t like that
Cause you’re the only one who can text me and I’ll be quick to write back

Chorus:
Let's take it slow, take it slow!
Let's take it slow to unify on what we need to make this grow!

Verse2:
After looking back with happiness at the past few weeks
The very thought of you is enough to pull me from sleep
I’ve been waking up at 5 am thinking of you
Wondering if you see me in a similar view
In a half-asleep dream-state so when my eyes open
I’m hoping to be back in your room, disrobing your clothing
Cause you got me open like a Starry Night
While you sleep I write you letters about how your heartbeat is like/the dopest drumbeat
When it’s beating next to mine
My favorite beat to write to as I reflect your divine
Bodies are temporary rather connect with your mind
Build a trail between our souls that leads you directly to mine
Reflect on the present so progressions align
We can talk about whatever you want as long as you express your mind
Our hearts are in full bloom let’s see what destiny finds
Delivered by the full Moon, a blessing so kind.
