Slow Down Songtext

von Love and Theft

Life, I need to talk to you
Can you spare a minute just to tell me what to do?
And I'm trying to climb this hill
I can feel you pass me by like I'm standing still

The things I gotta do
I'm feeling you leaving me behind
And I know I don't wanna go down this road alone
And I'm running out of time

So slow down, you're losing me
And I can't see what you want me to be
So slow down 'cause all I know is I can't go
As fast as you have got me spinning round
I'm barely hanging on, slow down

Why the moments pass me by?
Memories that I can't keep as hard as I may try
Oh life, you're so beautiful
I wish it wasn't so but I can only stay until

Though you say I gotta go
God only knows when that's gonna be
With all my might I'm trying to keep up with you
And now you're running away from me

So slow down, you're losing me
And I can't see what you want me to be
So slow down 'cause all I know is I can't go
As fast as you have got me spinning round
I'm barely hanging on, slow down

So slow down, you're losing me
And I can't see what you want me to be
So slow down 'cause all I know is I can't go
As fast as you have got me spinning round
Oh, look at how you got me spinning around
I'm barely hanging on, slow down
