Don't run so fast, love Slow down and let me catch you baby I've got a story to tell About a girl I know well She loved this guy Heaven knows why How could she love him Everytime this guy she'd see With another girl he'd be He didn't even notice She was crying Don't run so fast, love Slow down and let me catch you baby She'd choose her clothes with care She'd curl and set her hair And hope someday, that he'd look her way He was too busy He was always on the run Breaking hearts and havin' fun He couldn't see she was the one that needed him Each night she'd cry in fear That he would never hear Her heart and soul cry out I know it's love beyond a doubt By now you all must see This girl I know is me Though I feel like crying I won't stop trying to make him love me I've shown you a part of my soul But many things I've left untold Until he's mine to have and hold Forever Don't run so fast, love Slow down and let me catch you baby I need your arms around me tight, baby Slow down Slow down, baby
