SLOWLY BUT SURELY
(Bob McDill)


Don Williams - 1980


Startin' to want you when I don't want to
Lately I find you on my mind
Comin' on slowly, signs all show me
Somethin' is growin' as time goes by

Will you think about me when you're not with me
Beginnin' to miss me when you're alone
Ever so gently you find you want me
And it's gettin' stronger all along

We're takin' our time, it's the slow kind
But we don't mind, there's no hurry
'Cause it's a sure thing
That we're fallin' slowly but surely

(Instrumental Break)

I don't wanna rush you by sayin' I love you
We'll let it happen on its own
And when it does, love, one thing I'm sure of
It's gonna last us from now on

'Cause we're takin' our time, it's the slow kind
But we don't mind, there's no hurry
'Cause it's a sure thing
That we're fallin' slowly but surely
