lyrics

There's nothing like your smell,
So intoxicating
Rippling through my sleeves and  
My knees are shaking
You've got it all down to a science,
I know I've got it bad

Tell me that you've never been kissed
And I will do it right by you,
If you ask me to do
Something that I've never said I could do
Out loud

I'm a little slow to the game now
Show me all the steps
And I will know how
To play

There's nothing like a head
On your chest to test if
You are what's best
For me
You let it all out,
I let it all in
It all comes naturally

Tell me that you've never held hands
And I will stand and
Offer mine to you
But darling, if you sit down far too fast
Then I'll be dragged down too

I'm a little slow to the game now
Show me all the steps
And I will know how
To play

There's nothing like the joy
Of a boy who knows
What futures will lie ahead,
Who can talk the talk and
Walk the walk, but knows
When it's time for bed

Tell me that you've never been loved
And I will try my best
To show you how
You mingle with another soul
But then you keep all of your vows

I'm a little slow to the game now
Show me all the steps
And I will know how
To play

I'm a little slow to the game now
Take your time to walk a little way now
If you show me all the steps
Then I will know how
To play
