Slowly Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Down in Margate had a sip of you
And it went straight to my head
I could've opened up, cried and almost been myself
But I took the piss instead
[Pre-Chorus]
I find it hard, hard to be soft
Stop saying I'm perfect
When clearly I'm not
Just need to catch
Catch my breath
[Chorus]
Go slowly, slowly
I know you're not supposed to know me
I only see it when you show me slowly
I love to teach you how to hold me
So go on, hold me
[Verse 2]
Remember when you called us both a cab
And forgot you had your bike
And the whole way home, I thought
"How's he keeping up with me?
He must be really into me"
As I fight the urge to fly
[Pre-Chorus]
I find it hard, hard to be soft
Stop saying I'm perfect
When clearly I'm not
Just need to catch
Catch my breath
[Chorus]
Go slowly, slowly
I know you're not supposed to know me
I only see it when you show me slowly
I love to teach you how to hold me
So go on, hold me
Go slowly, slowly
I know you're not supposed to know me
I only see it when you show me slowly
I love to teach you how to hold me
So go on, hold me
[Outro]
Maybe I will be fine this time
And I'll let you see me in the light
Yeah, maybe I will be fine

What did Olivia Dean say about "Slowly"?
“Slowly” feels like one of the most vulnerable songs I’ve ever written. I used to think falling in love was supposed to be chaotic, fiery and tumultuous, but I’ve realised that really, to fall in love normally – and to have a healthy and ordinary relationship is a beautiful thing. It’s a song asking...
What have the artists said about the song?
This is maybe the saddest song I’ve ever written, but it’s super honest. When I was writing it, I was wondering if I’d even put it out. Maybe it was just a song I needed to write but I didn’t need to share. This song is like, ‘Am I really going to allow myself to be vulnerable with someone?’ I sent...
