Lyrics Gently, Johnny - Guy Mitchell

Why must you be so cold to me
I'm sentimental
But please proceed more carefully
Johnny, be gentle

Take your time, take your time
You're the shying' bashful kind
Gently, Johnny don't rush, me, so

Suppose I fight to steal a kiss
And hold you closer
You know you shouldn't act like this
I must say no, sir

Take your time, take your time
You're the shying' bashful kind
Gently, Johnny don't rush, me, so

You've got the skin I like to touch
I need you so, now
I think that you expect too much
You better go now

Take your time, take your time
You're the shying' bashful kind
Gently, Johnny don't rush, me, so

Suppose I said let's wed today
Would you be willing
I'll marry you without delay
I think it's thrilling

Take your time, take your time
You're the shying' bashful kind
Can't you see that I love you so

Can't you see that I love you
Can't you see that I love you
You know, my darling I love you so
