Baby, don’t you worry
Ain’t no tears to cry
Ain’t no broken promises
Ain’t no sad goodbyes
I know you’ve been hurt before
Love has been unkind to you!

Well, I’m gonna love you slowly
With this heart of mine
Love that lasts forever
One beat at a time.

Baby, I’m in no hurry
I’m a patient man
I’ll wait until you’re ready
To take you by the hand
We will walk together
Baby, I will renew your faith in love!

Well, I’m gonna love you slowly
With this heart of mine
Love that lasts forever
One beat at a time.

One beat at a time, one beat at a time,
(One beat at a time),
One beat at a time, one beat at a time
(One beat at a time)

Baby, look to the future
Tell me just what you see
Ain’t that a whole lot of happiness
Waiting for you and me
This is our shining moment
This is where all our dreams will come true!

Well, I’m gonna love you slowly
With this heart of mine
Love that lasts forever
One beat at a time.

Well, I’m gonna love you slowly
With this heart of mine
Love that lasts forever
One beat at a time.

One beat at a time, one beat at a time
(One beat at a time)
One beat at a time, one beat at a time
I’m gonna love you girl
One beat at a time, one beat at a time
And love will last forever
(One beat at a time, one beat at a time)
One beat at a time!
