Slow It Down Lyrics

I'd never met you, but I wanted
To invite you to the party
Then you walked in with those green eyes
Never stolen by nobody
And they flicker to the future
For a moment, I could picture
Then you touch me and I come back
And we're talking on the staircase
'Bout your big dreams on the big screens
Out of Georgia, now you're lonely in this city
Lyin' with me
And you're scared it's movin' quickly
Oh, now you're crying, you're in pieces
'Cause the only love you've ever known is Jesus
I can feel it
Oh, I hate that I'm the reason that you're

In your head right now
While your world is spinning out

So slow it down
Take a moment now
We're too young to drown
Deep in dirty waters
Full of hopeless doubt
Let me pull you out
Let me hold you now
Let me slow it down

Ain't it funny how it changes?
How the future rearranges
I get nervous, oh, I'm anxious
Maybe loving you is dangerous
I could lose you like the others
Only girl that's never left me is my mother
Oh, I love her
And I know you'll probably hate it, but I'm

In my head right now

So slow it down
Take a moment now
We're too young to drown
Deep in dirty waters
Full of hopeless doubt
Let me pull you out
Let me hold you now
Let me (slow it down)

Slow it down
When you're on the ground
And you're crying
I'm trying (slow it down)
To slow it down
When you're spinning 'round
In your head
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I'll help you slow it down

Cover art for Slow It Down lyrics by Benson Boone

It is about a couple who are in new love. They are both overthinking the relationship and both scared to move forward because of past relationships that hurt them.
But they realize they do have eachother, and they can hold eachother and "slow it down"-the doubts, insecurities, anxiety. Beautiful song.
