If I had it my way,
We'd be slow and steady.

Not like baby steps,
More like jump into everything --
Everything we'd done before
Full of feeling
No regrets
To appreciate wholly
Slow and steady

We would kiss each other gently on the forehead, cheek, lips, hands, to slow down time,
Slow and steady

We would hug each other like we'd never hug again and take more time,
Slow and steady

We would hold our hands together but do it gently and our thumbs would stroke our skins,
Slow and steady

We would look into our eyes and read each others minds again, but this time,
Slow and steady

We would cherish what we thought as "bad and risky", but with more love and deeper this time,
Slow and steady

We would never get doomed or upset afterwards because we'd do it all,
Slow and steady
