**SLOW RIDE** [Verse 1] You caught my eye across that room Like you knew where this would go One little smile beneath those lights And I lost all control You leaned in close and whispered low “Boy, what you waiting for?” I took your hand, you pulled me in And we slipped out that door [Pre-Chorus] Now the moon is hanging high And the radio’s down low Your head is resting on my shoulder We got nowhere else to go [Chorus] Let’s take a slow ride Let the gravel roll beneath the tires Windows down, your hand in mine Burning like a midnight fire We can take the long way home Cross every county line Baby, there ain’t no need to rush Tonight is yours and mine Let’s take a slow ride [Verse 2] Your fingertips across my chest Send a shiver through my skin Every mile, you move closer And I’m falling further in There’s an old dirt road beyond the pines Where nobody knows our names We can pull beneath those cottonwoods And let the night fan the flames [Pre-Chorus] Every touch a little deeper Every kiss a little slower You started something in my heart And I don’t want it to be over [Chorus] Let’s take a slow ride Let the gravel roll beneath the tires Windows down, your hand in mine Burning like a midnight fire We can take the long way home Cross every county line Baby, there ain’t no need to rush Tonight is yours and mine Let’s take a slow ride [Bridge] You don’t have to say a word I can read it in your eyes I’ll keep the rhythm soft and steady Underneath that southern sky No finish line, no morning clock No reason we should hide Just your heartbeat next to mine On this long and winding ride [Final Chorus] Let’s take a slow ride Let the gravel roll beneath the tires Windows down, your lips on mine Burning like a midnight fire We can take the long way home Leave the whole damn world behind Baby, there ain’t no need to rush Tonight is yours and mine Let’s take a slow ride Yeah, your slow ride [Outro] Moonlight falling through the pines Your hand resting in mine Just you and me tonight Taking that slow ride
