Mr. Slow

You know, I've waited all my life,
my friend,
Even though the story has no end,
All my friends they call me Mr. Slow,
It's all right,
It's all right.
If i could dream my life each day, i would,
Never tried to learn, just understood
That your life goes faster if you're slow,
It's all right,
It's all right.
I'm watching my life fade away,
Each second lasts more than each day,
I have said all i know, all i want, to say.
I only want to know what i can see
In the other world inside of me.
There's a password just for Mr. Slow,
It's all right,
It's all right.
I'm watching my life fade away,
If only you'd come home to stay.
There is just nowhere for people to go,
Where is your friend Mr. Slow?
I'm searching for time i once had,
Each second lasts mor than a day,
I have said all i know, all i want, to say.
