Lyrics

[Intro]

I don't know if you were looking at me or not

You probably smile like that all the time

And I don't mean to bother you, but

I couldn't just walk by

And not say hi

[Verse 1]

And I know your name

'Cause everybody in here knows your name

You're not looking for anything right now

So I don't wanna come on strong

Don't get me wrong

Your eyes are so intimidating

My heart is pounding, but it's just a conversation

No, girl, I'm not wasted

You don't know me

I don't know you

But I want to

[Chorus]

And I don't wanna steal your freedom

I don't wanna change your mind

I don't have to make you love me

I just wanna take your time

I don't wanna wreck your Friday

I ain't gonna waste my lines

I don't have to take your heart

I just wanna take your time

[Verse 2]

And I know it starts with hello

And the next thing you know, you try to be nice

And some guy's getting too close

Trying to pick you up

Trying to get you drunk

[Verse 3]

And I'm sure one of your friends is about to come over here

'Cause she's supposed to save you from random guys that talk too much

And wanna stay too long

It's the same old song and dance, but I think you know it well

You could've rolled your eyes

Told me to go to hell

Could've walked away

But you're still here

And I'm still here

Come on, let's see where it goes

[Chorus]

I don't wanna steal your freedom

I don't wanna change your mind

I don't have to make you love me

I just wanna take your time

I don't have to meet your mother

We don't have to cross that line

I don't wanna steal your covers

I just wanna take your time

[Bridge]

Whoa-ooh-oh-oh

I don't wanna go home with you

Whoa-ooh-oh-oh

I just wanna be alone with you

[Chorus]

I don't wanna steal your freedom

I don't wanna change your mind

I don't have to make you love me

I just wanna take your time

And I don't want to blow your phone up

I just wanna blow your mind

I don't have to take your heart

I just wanna take your time

[Chorus]

No, I ain't gotta call you, baby

And I ain't gotta call you mine

I don't have to take your heart

I just wanna take your time

[Outro]

Ooh-whoa-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
