Practice What I Preach

(Hey)

Give it space

Let it breathe

It comes back if it's meant to be

I, I need to practice what I preach

I need to take my own advice

Play it cool, don't text twice

I, I need to act on what I teach

'Cause I tell my friends to take it slow (heh)

I say that love cannot be controlled

Why

Do my own rules not apply?

I, I keep pushing love away

'Cause I do not as I say

And it's the same mistake I've always made

A bit more haste a lot less speed

That's exactly what I need

I should practice what I

Practice what I preach

Ah hey, I need to practice what I preach (hey)

And take my heart off my sleeve, yeah

Stop falling in too deep

Practice what I

I put Supremes on replay

You can't hurry love you just have to wait

I, I need to listen to what they say

'Cause perhaps if I would do the same (heh)

My love would come At Last like Etta James

At Last

My love has texted back

I, I keep pushing love away

'Cause I do not as I say

And it's the same mistake I've always made

A bit more haste a lot less speed

That's exactly what I need

I should practice what I

Practice what I preach

Oh if I practiced what I preach

I'd give it time

And if I practiced what I preach

Maybe I'd find

A love for me that I'll call mine

I guess it's worth a try

I, I keep pushing love away

'Cause I do not as I say

And it's the same mistake I've always made

A bit more haste a lot less speed

That's exactly what I need

I should practice what I

Practice what I preach

(Practice what I preach)

I keep pushing love away (practice what I preach)

'Cause I do not as I say (practice what I preach)
