I heard your heels moving soft and low
Playing it cool, girl, like I don’t know
Your eyes tell more than they conceal
You’re holding back, but I know the deal

I don't push and I don't chase
I take my mission at a lover's pace

Sooner than later you'll cross that line
And stop pretending that your heart ain't mine
Sooner than later you're gonna start to break
Stop dreaming of the move you're scared to take

You sweet-talk, baby, then you disappear
And every time, you come a little more near
You say you’re fine on your own tonight
Your pulse don't lie, and your grip ain’t light

I don't push and I don't chase
I take my mission at a lover's pace

Sooner than later you'll cross that line
And stop pretending that your heart ain't mine
Sooner than later you're gonna start to break
Stop dreaming of the move you're scared to take

You finish your drink and then you glance my way
I know damn well that you're gonna stay
I'm not fooled by your Sunday smile
Deep down you know I'll make it worth your while

I don't push and I don't chase
I take my mission at a lover's pace

Sooner than later you'll cross that line
And stop pretending that your heart ain't mine
Sooner than later you gonna start to break
Stop dreaming of the move you're scared to take
