Slowly Songtext
von Macy Gray

Would it be so bad if we just stopped for a while
And enjoyed the thrills? We could all be still
Let the world just pass us by
But it′s all hurry, hurry, run, run, there's no time for this
We want more and more, got to win, got to score
So afraid of what we′ll miss

And it moves so fast, nothing lasts
This too here will come to pass
Wanna spend my days away from all the fuss
Wanna spend them with you, baby, but you're in a rush

Slowly
Why can't we just take our time?
Slowly
I wish that we could take our time


Yeah, we′re all getting older, realize there′s no fountain of youth
This is it came quick, it's a lift, it′s a bitch
It's your moment, what you gonna do?
Yeah, time would you be a friend?
Ooh-ooh bless us with the chance
To really grow up, could you slow it up?
Would you postpone the end?

′Cause you move so fast, and nothing lasts
This too here will come to pass
Wanna spend my days away from all the fuss
Wanna spend them with you, baby, but you're in a rush

Hey, slowly
Why can′t we just take our time?
Slowly
I wish that we could take our time

'Cause you move so fast, and nothing lasts
This too here will come to pass
And it flies, and it rolls like the storms and the thunders
Stop and love me, baby, our days are numbered

Hey, slowly
Oh, why can't we just take our time? (Why can′t we just take our time?)
Hey, slowly
And I wish that we could take our time
Slowly take our time


Stop and love me, baby, come and love me, baby (slowly)
Our days are numbered (as we will take our time)
If I take my time, slow it down (slowly)
What you doing with me, baby?
Slowly (as we will take our time)
