Said, woman, take it slow, and things will be just fine. You and Ill just use a little patience.
Said, sugar, take the time cause the lights are shining bright. You and Ive got what it takes to make it. We wont fake it. Ill never break it cause I cant take it.

NOtE 1 When the verb to miss means to feel sad because you can no longer see somebody or do something that you like, it is a state verb; and in that case it is rarely used in continuous tenses.
Example: I am missing you (not recomended)
I miss you (better)
NOtE 2 In conversation ellipsis (omission of elements that can be easily understood from the context) is very common. In this song we can see that I, There, and We were omitted in several lines.
