Always running like I'm racing, road keeps spinning while I'm trying to chase it down
Always sooner never later and I only know one way to slow it down
I wanna hear you breathing, feel your head there on my shoulder
Man, this whole crazy life is moving way too fast

I wanna dance real slow
Put your arms around me
Let me hold you close
Girl, I wanna hear you tell me
Don't let go
I love it when we dance real slow

We can go out honky-tonking or stay here where no one's watching me and you
Light a candle in the kitchen, I can clear a spot out if you want me to
Put on a record, find a station on the radio
If it's too rocking all we gotta do is close our eyes and

Dance real slow
Put your arms around me
Let me hold you close
Girl, I wanna hear you tell me
Don't let go
I love it when we dance real slow

Like we're the only people left in the world
There ain't nobody here but me and you, girl
What you say we give it a whirl?

Girl, I wanna hear you tell me
Don't let go
I love it when we dance real slow
