[Verse 1]
Baby, slow down
Just hear me out
There's something I gotta let you know
No need to push
No need to rush
You know you had me from 'hello'

[Pre-Chorus 1]
When it comes to my heart, I don't play
Baby boy, can't you see the stop sign?
You're moving much too fast
Baby, love doesn't grow in a day
Just get it right the first time
Make this feeling last

[Chorus]
Baby, if you're willing to wait, we can just take our time (Take our time)
Don't you know that it's getting late?
And I know what's on your mind
I know this feeling is crazy
It's mutual baby
But we don't have to rush something real
Baby, if you're willing to wait, we can just take our time (Take our time)

[Verse 2]
Boy, can't you see?
I'm not tryna be the girl who gets taken for a ride
You take your time, and you will find there's so much more to me inside
And you say there's no need to delay
You're telling me to trust you
Boy, you know I want to, baby
But my heart, it's so recently break
Before we take this very far, show me who you really are

[Chorus]
Baby, if you're willing to wait, we can just take our time (Take our time)
Don't you know that it's getting late?
And I know what's on your mind (I know, baby, baby, yeah, yeah)
I know this feeling is crazy (Crazy)
It's mutual, baby (Mutual, baby)
But we don't have to rush something real
Baby, if you're willing to wait, we can just take our time (Take our time)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Hey baby
Baby, love doesn't grow in a day
Just get it right the first time
And make this feeling last

[Chorus]
Baby, if you're willing to wait, we can just take our time (Take our time)
Don't you know that it's getting late? (It's getting late)
And I know what's on your mind (And I know just what's on your mind, your mind, your mind, mind)
I know this feeling is crazy
It's mutual, baby
But we don't have to rush something real
We don't have to rush it
Baby, if you're willing to wait, we can just take our time (Take our time)
Our time
Don't you know that it's getting late?

Rihanna

A true pop icon, Robyn “Rihanna” Fenty is a singer, actress, and businesswoman from Saint Michael, Barbados. She was first discovered by American record producer Evan Rogers in 2003 and later signed a contract to Def Jam Recordings in 2004, after auditioning for its then-president, JAY-Z.

The following year, in 2005, she released her debut album Music of the Sun and its follow-up, A Girl Like Me, in 2006. Both albums did well commercially, but it wasn’t until the release of her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, in 2007 that poised Rihanna as an international pop star. It became her first album to receive a Grammy nomination (seven to be exact) and features one of her biggest hits, “Umbrella.”

Moving onto 2009, Rihanna released her fourth studio album, Rated R. It featured a darker and more atmospheric tone from her previous albums. She released her fifth studio album, Loud, the next year in 2010. It marked her return to making dance-pop records. That summer, she featured on Eminem’s smash hit, “Love the Way You Lie” and is one of her most popular features of all time.
