The Fratellis - Slow

To Rate
verse 1
If i had an audience
I'd cover my face
Lock away myself
In a lonesome place

verse 2
If i'd had a premonition
Of how this would be
I would still have begged
And took you home with me
Still have done it all
Done it hopelessly
And buried myself where no eye could see
chorus
Well i lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me, baby
Won't you do it slow

verse 3
If i had a crystal ball
I still wouldn't see it all
I swear i didn't do it
Just to make you crawl

verse 4
And if i had a audience
I'd ask them to leavе
How can i give them what i can't recеive
How can i pray when i just don't believe
And sometimes it takes
All your heart just to breathe

chorus
Well i lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
chorus 2
There's nothing i wouldn't give in this world
To be the man you met long ago
And if you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow

bridge
Don't let me see
Don't linger at my door
Tell me again
Was it to you i swore
That no one would play
With your heart anymore?

chorus
Well i lost my heart when my back was turned
If you see it could you let me know
And if you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow?
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow?
If you've got to leave me baby
Won't you do it slow?

The Fratellis

The Fratellis is a Scottish rock band hailing from Glasgow, formed in 2005. The band consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Jon Fratelli (born John Lawler), bass guitarist Barry "Baz" Fratelli (born Barry Wallace), and drummer/backing vocalist Mince Fratelli (born Gordon McRory). Despite their band name, the members are not actually brothers, but rather chose the name as a nod to the crime family in the movie "The Goonies" with "Fratelli" meaning brother in Italian.

The band gained recognition with the release of their debut EP, "The Fratellis EP," which featured the hit song "Creepin' Up The Backstairs." This led to their first big break when they were invited to perform on Jim Gellatly's Beatscene show on Galaxy Scotland. After the radio show aired, Fallout Records signed The Fratellis and they released their debut album, "Costello Music," which garnered them success and earned them the Brit Award for British Breakthrough Act in 2007.

Following the success of their debut album, The Fratellis released their second album, "Here We Stand," in 2008, which further solidified their popularity worldwide. They embarked on successful tours in the UK, US, Europe, and Japan, and donated proceeds from their single "Look Out Sunshine!" to Teenage Cancer Trust.

The band continued to release music, with their third album in 2013 and a surprise EP, "The Soul Crush EP," in 2014. They released their fourth album, "Eyes Wide, Tongue Tied," in 2015 and celebrated the 10th anniversary of "Costello Music" with a series of shows in 2016. Despite facing declining sales, The Fratellis persevered and released their fifth album, "In Your Own Sweet Time," with producer Tony Hoffer.

Known for their energetic live performances and catchy rock tunes, The Fratellis have established themselves as a prominent figure in the music industry. With their distinct sound and loyal fanbase, The Fratellis continue to create music and tour, captivating audiences around the world.
