Going too fast To let things last Scared they're gonna disappoint me The merry-go-round has left the ground Nothing from the past Can haunt me But when I push away (deep feelings) It's my own emotional life I was feeling You're coming into view (Who's ready?) Hold my hand real tight because I'm not too steady Stop the world I want you on it We're going too fast To feel a thing If you hadn't tried So hard to reach me I'd have missed all of this Stop the world I want you on it We're running too fast To let you in If I closed my eyes For one more minute I'd have missed all of this This is a whole different space Stop the world I want you on it Stop the world Thought I was fine Knew all my lines I didn't have to try to get them I just couldn't face an empty space Nothing had to come from inside But once you got through I felt it Every kind of worry in my heart just melted Something very real was missing I could be alive instead of just existing Stop the world I want you on it We're going too fast To feel a thing If you hadn't tried So hard to reach me I'd have missed all of this Stop the world I want you on it We're running too fast To let you in If I closed my eyes For one more minute I'd have missed all of this This is a whole different space Spin baby spin I know where you've been Under my skin This is real, I'm all there I never knew What love could do And then there was you I was here, but you were there Stop the world I want you on it We're going too fast To feel a thing If you hadn't tried So hard to reach me I'd have missed all of this Stop the world I want you on it We're running too fast To let you in If I closed my eyes For one more minute I'd have missed all of this This is a whole different space Stop the world I want you on it Can feel a thing I need you in it Stop the world
