Slow Down, Time Songtext
von Chubb+Bits

The mornings come so quickly now
The evenings fade away
I used to have forever here
But now I′m counting days

I see it in the photographs
The ones from years before
My children looked so little then
Now they're reaching for the door

Slow down, time, won′t you slow down
I'm not ready to let go
Slow down, time, let me breathe now
Let me watch them as they grow
Every laugh, every sleepy night
Every bedtime story read
Slow down, time, I'm begging you
These are the moments that I need


They don′t ask me to carry them
The way they used to do
They tie their own shoes now
And that′s beautiful and true

But somewhere in the middle of it all
I turned around one day
And all those tiny hands I held
Were reaching out away

Slow down, time, won't you slow down
I′m not ready to let go
Slow down, time, let me breathe now
Let me watch them as they grow
Every laugh, every sleepy night
Every bedtime story read
Slow down, time, I'm begging you
These are the moments that I need

I know I can′t stop what comes
I know that this is life
But let me have one more morning
Where everything feels right


Slow down
Just a little longer
Slow down
I need a little more time
