Slow Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the garden or the wild
I can feel you like a child
Seeing shadows in the room
By the fall and the rise
Of the young and the wise
Playing tag with the Moon
Chasing you
When I was young, you were only a ghost
Taking old friends, leaving me alone
When we are gone, tell me where do we go so fast?
Taking my cheeks in the palm of your hand
Making me weak, running in the sand
If I can't keep you, nobody can, so
Slow down, slow down
In the speed of the traffic
Or the rush in the rapids
When the ends come and meet
And I know you by the taste
From the moment we awake
By the sour in the sweet
And you can't see
When I was young, you were only a ghost
Taking old friends, leaving me alone
When we are gone, tell me where do we go so fast?
Taking my cheeks in the palm of your hand
Making me weak, running in the sand
If I can't keep you, nobody can, so
Slow down, slow down
When I was young, you were only a ghost
Taking old friends, leaving me alone
When we are gone, tell me where do we go so fast?
Taking my cheeks in the palm of your hand
Making me weak, running in the sand
If I can't keep you, nobody can, so
Slow down, slow down
