Took a Few

It took a few minutes counting on the clock
Just to walk up to you and feel like time was gonna stop
Well, all I knew I was in front of an angel
Lit up under the string lights that night
I probably should have paced myself
Contained myself, but I ain't felt like this with anyone else
Yeah, you had a hold on me, but hold on please
It's a whole different thing being sold on me

It took a few drinks, a few laughs
It took a few nights to call me back
I was a little confused by that
You took your time, baby, you take your time, yeah
You know I'm good if you run a little late
Putting on that makeup, it's worth the wait
Just to see you shine on a Saturday night
Like the first time I met you
It took a few

It took a few compliments, a couple smooth lines
Just to get you to dance in the neon lights
But finding a future takes a hell of a fight
Those hard-working days and sleepless nights
They keep you up, but we stood tough
It's all for the cause, baby, look at us
Yeah, you had a hold on me, so hold on please
It's only getting better, baby

It took a few drinks, a few laughs
It took a few nights to call me back
I was a little confused by that
You took your time, baby, you take your time, yeah
You know I'm good if you run a little late
Putting on that makeup, it's worth the wait
Just to see you shine on a Saturday night
Like the first time I met you
It took a few

It took a few minutes counting on the clock
And I was in love with you and that's never gonna stop
Yeah, you had a hold on me, so hold on please
You're everything I'll ever need

It took a few drinks, a few laughs
It took a few nights to call me back
I was a little confused by that
You took your time, baby, you take your time, yeah
You know I'm good if you run a little late
Putting on that makeup, it's worth the wait
Just to see you shine on a Saturday night
Like the first time I met you
It took a few
