Lyrics
I don't wanna kiss you yet
I just wanna keep on wanting to, a little longer
Breathing in the scent of you
Feeling a connection so brand new, getting stronger
Let's stop the world tonight
Cuz there's only one first time
Like snow before the footprints
The page before the pen
Like the breath that breaks the silence
Before the song begins
This moment, me & you right here will only come once
Baby, let's not rush
While love is still untouched
Seeing you in candlelight
I just wanna stop & memorize, this picture
My fingers softly trace your lips
The way you sign and say my name, in a whisper
I'm fallin deep this time
No turning back, once we cross that line
REPEAT CHORUS
Life is tough on love, but we'll be alright
If we never forget what we're feeling tonight
REPEAT CHORUS
