Shall We Begin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I remember the day when we first met
We both got caught in the rain
And we were soaking wet
I looked in your eyes
You gave me a smile
You told me your name
You told me about your career
I told you about my hopes, my dreams, my fears
We had some laughs
One month has past
Tonight can't you stay
Can you stay
Chorus:
Now that the time is feelin' just right
Candles burnin' turnin' out the lights
Anticipate the feeling of your skin
Shall we begin
Hit repeat and let the music play
Until the night turns into day
Open up your heart and let me in
Shall we begin
Over time we've gotten closer than close
You're the one I wanna be with the most
Neither one of us was in a rush
Agreeing to wait
Now I feel my patience running thin
Anticipating when you tell me when
The time is now
Tell me you'll stay
Chorus
We're gonna take our time
Don't hesitate to come inside
Relax your mind
Everything is alright
The candlelight and you
Just pour the wine
We're gonna take it nice and slow
Auto pilot
Steady as we go
Not in a hurry, no
Till I hear you say
That you're so glad you stayed
Chorus out
