Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's been a while since we've been alone
So turn off the world and the telephone
I need to tell you you're beautiful
'Cause it's been a while
And I apologise
[Verse 2]
I just get caught up in the rat race I'm running
Chasing a moment I'm hoping is coming
If I stopped and took a look around
It's in front of my eyes, eyes
[PreChorus]
Baby, let's slow down time
Maybe just press rewind
Darling, that dress reminds
Me of the first time
[Chorus]
And I wanna love tonight
One on one by the candlelight
Over and over, we spend our lives
Living fast forward
But not tonight
Love in slow motion
[Verse 3]
It's been a while since it was you and me
Too many friends, too many evening drinks
Yeah, we commit to so many things
But not to ourselves
And I apologise
[Verse 4]
Sometimes you're sad and you tell me it's nothing
And I brush it off because there's always something
But I need to change my perspective
And prioritise, -ise
[PreChorus]
If there's one thing I know, it's this
Every moment missed
Can be restored with your lips
It only takes one kiss
[Chorus]
And I wanna love tonight
One on one by the candlelight
Over and over, we spend our lives
Living fast forward
But not tonight
Love in slow motion
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Chorus]
Love tonight
One on one by the candlelight
Over and over, we spend our lives
Living fast forward
But not tonight
Love in slow motion
[Chorus]
Wanna love tonight
One on one by the candlelight
Over and over, we spend our lives
Living fast forward
But not tonight
Love in slow motion
[Outro]
In slow motion
In slow motion
