I was kind of blue and black, beat to hell and back
Kicked around by love, started staying home at night
Kept the door shut tight, I'd finally had enough
One day I went out for a jog and she was walking her dog
And we stopped and talked out in the road
She said I'd just moved in, haven't made any friends
So much for taking it slow
And just like that in no time flat
I went from nowhere to ready to go
Warped speeds, she was smiling at me
And my heart kicked into turbo mode
So much for taking it slow
Well the next weekend I was sitting home again
Surfing home again
Channels on TV
Then the very next thing I heard the doorbell ring
And she was standing there looking at me
She said I saw your light and it's a Saturday night
You shouldn't have to spend it alone
I brought a bottle of wine, I saved a long time
So much for taking it slow
And just like that in no time flat
I went from nowhere to ready to go
Warped speeds, she was smiling at me
And my heart kicked into turbo mode
So much for taking it slow
The next morning I was looking at her
Making coffee in one of my cars
So much for taking it slow
And just like that in no time flat
I went from nowhere to ready to go
Warped speeds, she was smiling at me
And my heart kicked into turbo mode
So much for taking it slow
So much for taking it slow
So much for taking it slow
So much for taking it slow
