1. Slow Motion

Slow Motion

(verse 1)

smooth like a criminal

he gambles like a poker player

taking a step to come play with me

dancing in the rain

under a streetlight in the autumn

not caught up in any danger

sweeping me off my feet like you do

taking responsibility in a flash hurry

(chorus)

an encounter in slow motion

meeting and then falling

so fast, so quickly

an encounter in slow motion

leaving me alone

again at once

(end chorus)

(verse 2)

he can read all my predictable tell-tell signs

not putting up a front at all

my vulnerable heart craves that shape

that only love can provide

that summer love from so long ago

can't hold a candle to how you handle me

(chorus)

an encounter in slow motion

my body and soul

are your proud goal

rencounter our love motion

those words that were pretty

a trap, it was

(end chorus)

(chorus)

an encounter in slow motion

meeting and then falling

so fast, so quickly

an encounter in slow motion

leaving me alone

again at once

(end chorus)

(verse 3)

smooth like a criminal

he gambles like a poker player

taking a step to come play with me
