Starting Slow

[Verse 1]
For all the birthdays and Christmases I missed
And all the times you said it's just excuses
For all the times I left you hanging alone
Didn't know what I had until it was gone

Now I see you up on a pedestal
Went off to college and quit smoking too
Said goodbye to all the plans that we'd made
Did something worthwhile while I stayed the same

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh
It started slow
Now you're just someone that I used to know
Ooh-ooh
It started slow
Now you're just someone that I used to know

[Verse 2]
And it's embarrassing when I'm back home
And someone askеd me how you're getting on
I wish I knеw but I tell 'em you are fine
Make up stories 'bout holidays in Hawaii
And if the world comes to a bitter end
Just know I'm thinking about you, my friend
Maybe we're stopping our own worst enemies
Yeah, probably

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh
It started slow
Now you're just someone that I used to know
Ooh-ooh
It started slow
Now you're just someone that I used to know

[Bridge]
Ooh-ooh
Ahh
Ooh-ooh
Ahh
Ahh-ahh

[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh
It started slow
Now you're just someone that I used to know
Ooh-ooh
It started slow
Now you're just someone that I used to know
