Slow Down

歌詞

16 hour workday just to provide Everything for his little tyke No time to sing a lullaby Or give him a piggyback ride TV babysitter, toys are a bribe As he speeds out the doorway And the car leaves the driveway The boy runs after his father But his steps are too small He stretches out his hands to reach him As he tumbles and falls. Slow down, I can’t keep up with you You’re getting a little too quick For me to follow Slow down, You’re getting away from me And I don’t know how to slow you down 60 years together weathering the times The good, the bad, the sweetest sighs Watching children of their children smile As they did when they walked down the aisle Walking canes and wheelchairs slowly wind Twirling the years, curling their faces But now he’s stumbling faster Towards that finish line She stretches out her hands to reach him As he closes his eyes Slow down, I can’t keep up with you You’re getting a little too quick For me to follow Slow down, You’re getting away from me And I don’t know how to slow you down And I don’t know how to slow you down And I don’t know how to slow you down Slow down, I can’t keep up with you You’re getting a little too quick For me to follow Slow down, You’re getting away from me And I don’t know how to slow you down
