Lyrics

Take Me Down

First Verse:
Hesitation, frustration.
I?m tired of waiting for my dreams to come true.
Right now ? it?s just nice.
Being here with you.

Second Verse:
Anticipation, rejuvenation.
Don?t like bein? in this situation.
Wanting something so bad I can taste it.
I can?t hide it anymore.

Chorus:
Take me down slow.
I don?t really want to know.
Where you go after me.
All I know is right now, you set me free.

Third Verse:
I?m no princess and you?re no prince.
This will never be a fairytale romance.
I?m scare and confused. You must be amused.
It?s evident we?re both being used.

Fourth Verse:
All this talk about how you make me feel.
Sometimes I wish this love was real.
Right now, I don?t care about that.
This night is where we?re at.

Bridge:
This ain?t no Cinderella story ?
With a happy ending.
I ? don?t ? mind ?
I?m not accustomed to winning.

Chorus:
Take me down slow.
I don?t really want to know.
Where you go after me.
All I know is right now, you set me free.

Closing Verse:
After all is said and done.
We really did have some fun.
But now I?ve got to be moving along.
Because of you, I can finally sing my song.
