Jeff Bates - Long Slow Kisses Lyrics

(Jeff Bates/Gordon Bradberry/Ben Hayslip)

Hey baby, I guess you're wondering
What I'm doing home so soon
Naw, I ain't sick
It's just, this morning when you told me
You didn't feel like you were the most
Important thing in my life anymore
Well, that broke my heart
So I had to turn around and come back
And tell you what I'm gonna do about it

I'm gonna light the bedroom candles
Take the phone out of the wall
We can lay around and talk for hours
Or maybe we won't talk at all
I'm gonna resurrect the love
That slipped away from us
And the man you've been missin'
Startin' with some long, slow kisses

I just wanna let you know how ashamed I am
For making you feel that way
Darlin', I'm so sorry
I guess I've just been spendin'
Too much time on makin' a livin'
And way too little on making love
But if you can find it in your heart to forgive me
Girl, I swear from this moment on
You'll always know where you stand with me

I'm gonna light the bedroom candles
Take the phone out of the wall
We can lay around and talk for hours
Or maybe we won't talk at all
I'm gonna resurrect the love
That slipped away from us
And the man you've been missin'
Startin' with some long, slow kisses

'Cause what really matters most
Is you and me this close
Feelin' no distance
Sharin' some long, slow kisses
Sharin' some long, slow kisses
