Let Me Down Slow

You look a little dressed up

You're acting way too smart

Your face, a little bit flushed

For a walk in the park

And you're clutching your phone

As you walk in the dark

And your smile's got a twist

You're looking so hardcore

If you've something to say

Don't be too direct

'Cause I feel a little fragile

Don't hit the nail on the head

Why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow"

Oh no-no, no

Why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow"

No, no, no-no

There's a swish in your step

There's a gleam in your eye

Are you coloring your hair

With some new kind of dye?

The first one to blink

Is the first one to fall

I don't want a confrontation

I've got my back to the wall

Oh, why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow"

Oh, no-no, no

Why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow

Oh, na-na-na-na-na-na

I said, "Baby, baby, let me down real slow"

Oh, no-no, no

Oh, I said, "Let me stretch out in the afterglow"

Oh, na, na, na, na, na, na now I gotta go

Let me down real slow

Oh, na-na-na-na-na-na

Baby, let me down real slow
