Let's wake up in the afternoon
Pretend that we got nothing to do
No we don't have to go by any agenda
We can make up our own rules
I see the way you're looking at me
Baby know I'm feeling it too
We can just light up every candle
Move from room to room

Stopping every minute just because you're in it
Wishing everyday was Sunday, you're right next to me
It's how it's supposed to be
Hanging on every touch
Baby don't rush, no no
Baby don't rush

Throw the map out of the window
Taking the long way around
To a secret place where no one could find us
A little place we can call our own
Come over here and take a picture
Something we can hang on to
We can look back and try to remember
All the crazy things we gonna do

Stopping every minute just because you're in it
Wishing everyday was Sunday, you're right next to me
It's how it's supposed to be
Just hanging on every touch
Baby don't rush
Baby don't rush

Stopping every minute just because you're in it
Stopping every minute just because you're in it
Stopping every minute

Stopping every minute just because you're in it
Wishing every day was Sunday, you're right next to me
It's how it's supposed to be

Stopping every minute just because you're in it
Wishing everyday was Sunday, you're right next to me
It's how it's supposed to be (supposed to be)
Just hanging on every touch
Baby don't rush no no
Baby don't rush (Baby don't rush)
Baby don't rush

    I loved this song from the first time I saw it, especially the lines: "I love you so much But you don’t see me I hate love."

    I could go blah blah blah "I identify with this..." and then say why, but I guess the meaning is pretty simple, but it's brilliant.

    I LOVE this song. Kelly has such emotion in her voice, you can like, feel the pain. I can't wait for a studio version of it.

    this song is so beautiful...

    do you think that its about a breakup or a love that never was?

    I thought of this as a song to someone she wants to be with, but can't because he only sees her as a friend. And he doesn't understand that's how she feels about him so he says things that people say to their friends (in this case maybe really close friends?) like "oh, I love you" "I'm glad you're my friend" all those kinds of things, and they hurt her because she wants them to be true, but knows they aren't.

    at the start of the song she says hopefully this will be on the new album. did she mean the breakaway album and it never made it onto it, becuase didn't she say that on the 1st album tour?

    She meant Breakaway, I think...

    and it's a song about a love that will never be, she's in love with a friend, but he doesn't see this, he just carries on as normal, oblivious to her feelings about him.

    This song,..well..I think that the lyrics are simple. You know, when yopu have this friend, you like him A LOT, and he too, coz you are his friend, you share things with him, he loves you..adores you..everything..but not in the way that he should, he just likes you..as a friend..

    This song is sad and you can hear the pain in her voice. I felt like this with my friend, I liked him more but then I told him and we got together and then we broke up and I still like him and it blaahh.. this song is really good.
