Intro:
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Verse 1:
Whatever you're searching for
We won't find it here
But I'll admit something keeps pulling me back into your atmosphere
I'm really good at mistakes, all the marks I've left on the page
They seem to never wanna disappear

Pre Chorus:
Why do you still come around?
When all I do is push, push, push you away
I really, really wanna take a chance on you
But I.... I hesitate

Chorus:
I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break heart
Just finished picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slipped from your fingertips
My name would be stained on your lips
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Verse 2:
Feel like everybody's watching to see what my next move is
Do I proceed with caution or do I just dive in
I'm fine with taking it slow, enjoy life on own
But I could be confusing, sometimes I know

Pre Chorus:
I'm surprised you're still around
Baby, all I do is push, push, push you away
I really, really wanna take a chance on you
But I.... I need to make sure this isn't just a phase

Chorus:
I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finished picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slipped from your fingertips
My name would be stained...
I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finished picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But, now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slipped from your fingertips
My name will be stained on your lips
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Outro:
Nothing wrong with taking my time with love
I don't wanna be the bad guy again
I don't wanna be the bad guy again
Still working out the kinks of my tainted love
Colors bleed out from my heart to his
Different shades that I can't predict....
Nothing wrong with taking my time with love
