(Guitar; Clap-clap-clap, clap-clap-clap, violins)
Verse 1: Before I knew you
I would always take things too fast
This time right here
I want to make our friendship last
Taking chances
Is a child’s gamble
I’m a risk taker
Is that too much to handle
Chorus 1: Who knew that a girl like you would
Come along oh you stole
My heart at the
First time I
Saw you
I must take this slow
For you to open up
To me, you are beautiful
Baby, I can’t breathe
I’m climbin’ very slow
Loving you is the first step
To say hello
Verse 2: Guys lower than me
They would try to impress you off the bat
But I can’t believe
Who would ever go far like that
Maybe I am
Born traditional
Is it okay that
I am too careful
(Spoken) I’m takin it slow, girl
‘Cause I do love you
Chorus 2: I never knew any girl that would
Hit with just one shot that
Cupid could just
Take a guess
At true love
Without you it’s raining
Only down on me of
All of my regrets
Baby, I am climbin’ out
I’m climbin’ very slow
This is the first step
To say hello
(Instrumental; Key change)
Bridge: All I want is you to
Love me, love me, love me
All you need is me to
Love you, love you, love you
You may be confused
As I am too
But, girl,
The first step
Is to say hello
Oooh to say hello
Oh
(Key change back to key one)
Chorus 3: I must take this slow
For you to open up
To me, you are beautiful
Baby, I can’t breathe
Yes, I’m climbin’
Up the ladder
I am climbin’
I’m climbin’ very slow
This is the first step
To say hello
(Key change)
Yes, I’m climbin’
Up the ladder
I am climbin’
I’m climbin’ very slow
The first step
