[Intro]

Slow down, sister

'Cause I just can't love you

But I just can't get you off my mind

Come on

[Verse 1]

Well, I ain't your fool

I'm not falling

I'm not falling in love with you

I play by my rules

And believe me

You don't want me too close to you

[Pre-Chorus]

And even though you look so fine

I've been on this broken road one too many times

[Chorus]

So slow down, sister

'Cause I just can't love you

But I just can't get you off my mind

Oh, and Lord knows I need you

But I just don't want to

Put this rusted heart up on the line

[Verse 2]

I've heard people say

That I'm crazy

That I'm crazy for avoiding you

But honey, I got my freedom

And my reasons

All the reasons for what I do

[Pre-Chorus]

But that last kiss just did me in

And I don't want to look at you as something more than a friend

[Chorus]

Oh, so slow down, sister

'Cause I just can't love you

But I just can't get you off my mind

Oh, and Lord knows I need you

But I just don't want to

Put this rusted heart up on the line

[Bridge]

Woah, slow down, sister

I gotta make you mine

All I'm asking for is just a little time

A little more time

[Chorus]

So slow down, sister

'Cause I just can't love you

But I just can't get you off my mind

Oh, and Lord knows I need you

But I just don't want to

Put this rusted heart up on the line

[Outro]

Slow down, sister

Woo-hoo-hoo

Yeah, uh-huh

We'll just slow down, slow down, slow down

Just one time
