[Verse] Streetlamps cough, buzz, then wake We’re two kids out, way too late Your fingers caught mine like they’d done it before I lost the joke I was aiming for [Prechorus] Oh, oh, oh Keep on walking [Chorus] Don’t slow down, don’t slow down Talk over me, don’t slow down One look at you and I lose the thread I’m way too close, but I love what’s next Say it again and don’t go quiet Don’t slow down, don’t slow down (Ooh-ooh-ooh, I’m in it) [Verse 2] We cut behind the bodega sign Past the man who sweeps at closing time Our shoes hit sparks on the busted-up curb We were never good at acting hurt [Prechorus] Oh, oh, oh Don’t let go now [Bridge] We take the long route past the laundry place Past the corner deli with the buzzing case Your coat on my arm, my phone face down You nudge me once at the crosswalk sound Your laugh comes sharp through the cold air And I keep tripping over what to say You say, “You’re kind of a mess like this” And I just grin and let it hit [Chorus] Don’t slow down, don’t slow down Talk over me, don’t slow down One look at you and I lose the thread I’m way too close, but I love what’s next Say it again and don’t go quiet Don’t slow down, don’t slow down (Ooh-ooh-ooh, I’m in it)
