Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She takes her time when it's time to get ready
Always has her way
Always leaves me waitin' by the phone
She told me more than once to take it slow
And I said okay
But lately, I've been sleepin' all alone
[Verse 2]
Whoa
I'm not breakin' up inside
I'm much to proud to moan
Baby, please come home
[Verse 3]
And I feel little lucky, so I try to play it cool
I think she laughs inside
With the words that burn like fire in my mouth
Try to be a man, like I got the master plan
Night out on the town
A drink and dance and we can turn it out
[Verse 4]
Whoa
Maybe it's how your body moves
I just don't know
Maybe it's just the way you move so slow
[Verse 5]
Hello?
Hi, it's me
I thought I told you not to call me here
I know, I just really need to talk to you
Get a clue, babe, there's nothing to talk about
[Verse 6]
Ask me why, I played myself
Played myself for a fool
Swear that I would do most anything
Hey, huh
Walk a mile to see her smile
Walk a mile just to rock for a while
And babe, I'm thinking with my ding-a-ling
[Verse 7]
Whoa, whoa
I've been doing some thinkin'
Now, i just don't know
Maybe just the way you move so slow
[Verse 8]
Maybe 'cause you move so slow
Maybe 'cause you move so slow
[Verse 9]
But sitting on the verge of tears
Does not become my twenty-two years
You took my shame and you took my pride
And now you're gonna take me for a slow ride
But, uh, ah, waiting, waiting on the phone
You got the words that burn like fire in my mouth
Come on down, reggae style
Wind up your body like a bass line wild
Drinking, dancing, we can turn it out
[Verse 10]
Whoa
I'm not goin' crazy, but
I just don't know
Maybe it's just the way you move so slow
[Verse 11]
Maybe 'cause you move so slow
Maybe 'cause you move so slow
[Verse 12]
Flat love, moving nice and low
Slow ride
Slow ride
Slow ride
