about

" 'Slowly' starts at a very high level with a gentle folk-country love song featuring sweet tenor voices. This is music very much the equal of the great ’70s folk artists: Bromberg, Lightfoot, etc. Ariel Wyner’s mandolin is terrific."
-Dino DiMuro, Divide and Conquer

lyrics

Slowly, we fell, always taking time from the start.
Slowly, we drifted, never noticing the rift between our hearts.

Chorus: But taking time has never been my thing.
I'm always seeing clouds before the rain.
I've waited long enough for you to see.
I'm not gonna call if you don't answer me.
I want to be in your heart slowly.

Quickly, too fast, we were questioning if we could make this last.
Maybe we'll try, try to make a present from our past.

Chorus

Bridge:
I know it might be frightening. Holding back is hurtful.
Forgive the clouds for letting loose the rain.
I know we have a history, but that's what makes this special.
I'm holding out my heart for you to claim.

Chorus 2: 'Cause taking time has never been my thing.
I'm always seeing clouds before the rain.
I've waited long enough for you to see.
I'll slow down for you if you could still love me.
I want to be in your heart slowly.

Tag: I want to be in your heart slowly.
I want to be in your heart slowly.
Slowly…
