Victims & Villains

2023

[Chorus]
My heart beats just like the speed of a slow dance
(My heart beats, oh)
One step at a time, that's how we should take this romance
(And that's all I know)
Around this tempo (Yeah, oh)
Steady and sure like a slow dance (Slow dance, yeah)
The rhythm of my feelings (Feelings) rocks back and forth like a slow dance (Slow dance)
[Verse 1]
I think there's a chance for us to get it right (Oh)
Be patient with it, if this love is to survive (Oh)
'Cause what's the rush? Ain't nothin' wrong with taking our time (Oh)
I'd just like to make sure we are aligned (Oh-oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
All this runnin' 'round will lеave you left behind
(I wanna) Takе the steps to keep you by my side
(Come on and) Put your hand in mine and I can show you how (Yeah)
We can move (Yeah), I wanna move (Yeah)
[Chorus]
But my heart beats (My heart) just like the speed (Of a) of a slow dance (Like a slow dance)
One step at a time (One step), that's how we should take this romance (Romance, around)
Around this tempo (Yeah)
Steady and sure like a slow dance (Steady and slow dance, yeah)
(The rhythm of my)
The rhythm of my feelings (It rocks back and forth) rocks back and forth like a slow dance (Slow dance, ooh)
[Verse 2]
(Steady) In rotation, yeah, and when the moment's right
(We can) Let the rhythm of it take us through the night
(Come close and) Put your lips on mine, I'll savor it like wine (Wine)
We can't make this up, it must be by design, oh (Oh)
[Pre-Chorus]
All this runnin' 'round will leave you left behind (All this runnin' 'round)
(I wanna, I wanna take) Take the steps (The steps to) to keep you by my side (Keep)
(Come on and) Put your hand in mine (Put your hand in mine and I'll) and I can show you how
We can move (Yeah, we can move), I wanna move
[Chorus]
But my heart beats just like the speed of a slow dance (Oh, and one step)
One step at a time (At a time), that's how we should take this romance (We should take this romance around)
Around this tempo (Oh)
Steady and sure like a slow dance (Steady, slow dance, dance)
(The rhythm of)
The rhythm of my feelings rocks back and forth like a slow dance
[Outro]
(My) My heart beats (Oh, my heart) just like the speed of a slow dance (Like, like a slow dance)
One step at a time (At a time), that's how we should take this romance (Oh-oh)
Around this tempo, steady and sure like a slow dance
The rhythm of my feelings, rocks back and forth like a slow dance
