Untitled > Live From Madison Square Garden

She takes it deep to the heart right from the start she talks softly over a glass of wine
Now and again she's more than a friend, why don't you just throw me that line
It would be great if she'd dedicate just a minute from her precious time
I'll give it a while, but that's not my style, now how is that a crime?

Everyone says that I'm wild
Pardon my French but I still know my child
And that was the day I told her I need more time

Well I began walking when she was still talking I'm looking for that exit sign
Pardon my face but I'm leaving no trace cause I really haven't got no more time
Well I began thinking and my heart is just sinking and I'm looking for that place to go
Well isn't it sad that she can treat you so bad, but you never really let her know

And everyone says that she's crying
But I can't forget all the time I was trying
And that was the day I told her I need more time

And I know, I know what it feels like to be alone
I say now I know, I know what it feels like to be at home
I say now I like, I like stopping to say hello
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?
Why can't you take it slow?

Why can't we take this slow?

Well I've been through you're phases, I'm walking through you're mazes
I'm so damn sick, I'm so tired
It sure isn't fair but I was never aware of the patience that you required
If I could have kissed you every time that I missed you I would still have walked out the door
Because now and again, I could sure use a friend, isn't that what you're for?

And everyone says that I'm lying
But I can't forget all the time I was trying
And that was the day I told her I need more time

And I know, I know what it feels like to be alone
I say now I know, I know what it feels like to be at home
I say now I like, I like stopping to say hello
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?

Till you know, till you know
What it feels like to be alone
Till you know
Just what it's like to live at home
Do you love? Do you like?
Sitting back just saying hello
It's my life, it's my only life
We better take it slow

Do you know? Do you know?
What it feels like to be alone
Do you know? Do you know?
What it feels like to be at home
Do you like? Do you love?
Sitting there saying hello
It's my life, my life why can't we take this slow?
Baby, take it slow
