lyrics

-VERSE-
Another Thursday night and we’re roaming the city again.
Into a shady bar for a quick break from all the rain,
They’re glad to see us.

Got an ice-cold brew and my best friend, it’s all I need.
The rock and roll pours from the battered speakers in front of me,
I feel at home.

-PRECHORUS-
And then a blinding light from the doorway,
And there she is, she’s looking oh-so-fine.
I turn to tell him but then in a single glance I see the look in his eyes.
He says…

-CHORUS-
Don’t slow me down ‘cause she’s my speed. (she’s my speed)
She’s got the energy I need. (she’s my speed)
A good time with her is guaranteed. (she’s my speed)
Sometimes it feels it’s meant to be.

-VERSE-
He walks across the bar and she smiles to herself.
I’m following right behind just in case he should need my help.
A quality wingman!

They talk about the evening and what might be in store.
I ask him what he thinks, he’s not listening anymore.
A new distraction.

-PRECHORUS-
‘Cause then a pretty girl in the window,
She’s passing by, she’s looking oh-so-fine.
I turn to tell him but then in a single glance I see the look in his eyes.
He says…

-CHORUS-
Don’t slow me down ‘cause she’s my speed. (she’s my speed)
She’s got the energy I need. (she’s my speed)
A good time with her is guaranteed. (she’s my speed)
Sometimes it feels it’s meant to be.

-VERSE-
It’s later in the night and we’re down in another place.
He says “let’s wrap it up” but I can’t seem to concentrate.
It’s my turn.

-PRECHORUS-
‘Cause coming down the stairs is a vision
She’s stepping lightly, looking oh-so-fine.
He turns to tell me but then in a single glance he sees the look in my eyes.
I say…

-CHORUS-
Don’t slow me down ‘cause she’s my speed. (she’s my speed)
She’s got the energy I need. (she’s my speed)
A good time with her is guaranteed. (she’s my speed)
Sometimes it feels it’s meant to be.
