This song seems to be about a guy who cared enough about her to wait until she was ready to have sex.
I think in the first line “best” should be “fast”. I hear “best” too, but fast makes more sense to me.
I was a little different/I didn’t do what the fast girls do
The “fast” girls were quick to give it up and she wasn’t.
Studied my rhythm/Now you can speed me up when you want to.
By getting to know her, he made her feel comfortable with taking the next step; he acquired the ability to turn her into a “fast” girl so to speak.
They were too cool to run my race/you kept the pace with a smile on ya face
The other dudes were not used to waiting (they were so cool so they didn’t have to) he was fine with waiting.
But first you took me around, introduced me to your family and friends,
And told them how that once we met, that we would never lose...
He made it known to his people that he was serious about her.
How's it feel to win it
This line makes me think she could be talking about her virginity.
You were runnin' me, runnin' me down (running),
Tellin' me, tellin' me "Wait" (tellin' me, tellin' me "Wait"...);
Running me down and telling me you were never gonna let go is the way you got me...
Again, he stuck it out when the others couldn’t/wouldn’t until he got her and that’s how she decided he was the one.
