Slow Down

You’re 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
Some day it’d come true

Slow down, this world won’t slow down for me, and for you
It won’t go fast enough, slow down

I had my eye on the ball
Thought I knew how the game was played
But you grew so tall
And found out 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

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...

Slow down, this world won’t slow down for me, and for you
It won’t go fast enough...
