Fast As I Can (Great Big Sea)

From the first "Hello" you gave to me,
I've done nothing else but smile;
And I know you're in a hurry,
But it's gonna take a while.
So forgive me if we go slow,
But there's something I think you should know...

I'm goin' fast as I can, please don't make me rush,
This feeling's coming on way too fast;
I'll tell you all of the things that you'll never forget,
But I'm not ready to say, "I love you" yet.
I'm not ready to say, "I love you".

Don't push me in too deep,
I've always been the fool who rushes in;
I know you've got to take the pieces one-by-one,
For you've got everything.
So forgive me if we take time,
But there's something that's been on my mind...

Oh! There'll be times when I'm mistaken,
Oh! There'll be times when we're gonna fight;
But you needn't doubt we can work it out,
And in time we'll get it right.
So forgive me if we go slow,
But there's something I think you should know...

I'm goin' fast as I can, please don't make me rush,
This feeling's coming on way too fast;
I'll tell you all of the things that you'll never forget,
But I'm not ready to say, "I love you" yet.
