Ben Sollee - Slow Down lyrics

rate me

SLOW DOWN

Your feet were gliding

above the ground.

You might as well have been flying

to some distant place.

And I was crying,

cause there's no denying

Someday it'll come true

Slow down,

this world won't slow down for me

and for you, it won't go fast enough.

Slow down,

this world won't slow down for me

and for you, it won't go fast enough.

I had my eye on the ball,

thought I knew how the game was played

But you grew so tall

found out that you had

your own mind you could make.

Slow down,

this world won't slow down for me

and for you, it won't go fast enough.

Slow down,

this world won't slow down for me

and for you, it won't go fast enough.

fast enough, fast enough

fast enough....

You won't always want me to hold your hand

but the size of your clothes won't make you a man

As you grow, you will learn there ain't always a plan

but we did our best to

Slow down,

this world won't slow down for me

and for you, it won't go fast enough.

Slow down,

this world won't slow down for me

and for you, it won't go fast enough.
