Backstory:

Going for a 90's country feel, with a story about a Son asking his Dad for advice about a girl he likes. The Son is nervous about having his heart broken, and the father is suggesting he slow things down. In the end, it's revealed that the Mother left, which is why both are cautious/worried about love.

Lyrics:

                                                  
Hit the brakes
Dawson, Grenn

Verse I                                         
This kid called his dad, said can we
chat, I don't know if I know what I'm doin'
I met this girl, I really like her,
I think she wants to move in
But good things never end that well still echoes in my mind 
What if she packs her bags, one of these days, and tells me goodbye? 
He said son you're doing fine, just

Chorus
Slow things down
Make a little space
Yeah, don't rush in
Cuz it hurts when it ends
If it's too far too fast 
Hit the brakes..

Instr 16
Call backs: “Too far too fast..”
6 months later the son called back and said..

Verse II 
Hey Dad got a minute or two, 
I wanna talk about buyin' a ring
I think it's time, that girl of mine, carried our last name
Maybe we could settle down, and buy a house, with some grass to cut
It all sounds great, but what if someday, she says my love ain't enough?
He said son you're doing fine, just

Chorus

Bridge 
He said I'm just lookin' out for you 
Like father's supposed to do
Keep you safe from the pain of
Comin' home to a handwritten breakup note on the table
Full of "it's me not you", 
Leadin' to soul searchin' 
At the bottom of a bottle
Just trying to make it through the day
Ever since your mother left, 
I ain’t been the same 
That's why I say…

Chorus
