Slowitdown

Sunlight through the dappled leaves falls on the window sill

An old fan spinning lazily is making time stand still

No need to chase the ticking clock or fight the heavy rain

Bought a ticket to nowhere on this empty little train

Passing by the golden fields and towns without a name

The radio is playing songs that always sound the same

No need to wear a perfect mask or play a hollow game

Let the rolling wheels measure exactly why I came

Slow it down just slow it down

Let the wheels count the miles leaving the town

Take me back to the days of a simpler mind

Leaving all of those unread messages behind

Slow it down just slow it down

Let the sunset paint gold on the edge of my gown

Every delayed goodbye is forgiven today

Stopping here is just walking a beautiful way

The clicking of the iron tracks sounds like a lullaby

The lady sitting next to me tells stories of the sky

A glass bottle of soda pop is bubbling with delight

Drifting with no destination into the gentle night

Passing by the golden fields and towns without a name

The radio is playing songs that always sound the same

No need to wear a perfect mask or play a hollow game

Let the rolling wheels measure exactly why I came

Slow it down just slow it down

Let the wheels count the miles leaving the town

Take me back to the days of a simpler mind

Leaving all of those unread messages behind

Slow it down just slow it down

Let the sunset paint gold on the edge of my gown

Every delayed goodbye is forgiven today

Stopping here is just walking a beautiful way
