Lyricist: Composer:
Tell your mother that you're old enough
You have learned how to lie
When the truth ain't enough
But I can see right through you
Right through your bones
To your beatin' heart
Where your fears are home
If you wanna go, go fast
If you're gonna lie to me, just say that
If you wanna leave, then say so
But if you wanna love, love slow
Take the clocks off the walls
Turn them three hours back
Cause if love is a race
I wanna come in last
You can run till the end of time
But that's romantic suicide
We're just two kids gettin' by
Are you gonna be by my side?
If you wanna go, go fast
If you're gonna lie to me, just say that
If you wanna leave, then say so
But if you wanna love, love slow
Love slow
Let's breathe a little
Be us in the middle
Not even close to a riddle
I just want you
If you wanna go, go fast
And if you're gonna lie to me, just say that
And if you wanna leave, then say so
But if you wanna love, love slow
