Slow, slow me down Slow, slow me down Given time I'd make amends For what I have become since I've been away Grown a map about my eyes You never let me down, read between the lines You speak slowly, I can only shake Slow, slow me down Slow, slow me down Given time I'd find a place To wash away the dirt; soak it up all day This port town could fit the bill But you have got the keys; you have got the pills I've been drifting, almost sleeping deep Slow, slow me down Slow, slow me down She said cherish me, before the winter blows through me There really is no mystery We got this hour so why not use it… Slow, slow me down Slow, slow me down
