Just slow me, slow me down 00:03

Slow me down, slow me down 00:07

Rushing and racing and running in circles 00:12

Moving so fast, I'm forgetting my purpose 00:16

Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning, getting nowhere 00:18

My head and my heart are colliding, chaotic 00:24

Pace of the world, I just wish I could stop it 00:27

Try to appear like I've got it together, I'm falling apart 00:30

Save me, somebody take my hand and lead me 00:36

Slow me down (Slow me down) 00:45

Don't let love pass me by 00:48

Just show me how (Show me how) 00:51

'Cause I'm ready to fall 00:53

Slow me down (Slow me down) 00:57

Don't let me live a lie 01:00

Before my life flies by 01:02

I need you to slow me down 01:05

Sometimes I fear that I might disappear 01:14

In the blur of fast-forward I falter again 01:17

Forgetting to breathe, I need to sleep, I'm getting nowhere 01:19

All that I've missed I see in the reflection 01:26

Passed me while I wasn't paying attention 01:29

Tired of rushing, racing and running, I'm falling apart 01:32

Tell me, oh, won't you take my hand and lead me 01:38

Slow me down (Slow me down) 01:46

Don't let love pass me by 01:50

Just show me how (Show me how) 01:52

'Cause I'm ready to fall 01:55

Slow me down (Slow me down) 01:58

Don't let me live a lie 02:02

Before my life flies by 02:04

I need you to slow me down 02:07

Just show me 02:12

I need you to slow me down 02:14

Slow me down, slow me down 02:16

The noise of the world is getting me caught up 02:21

Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it 02:24

Just need to breathe, somebody please 02:27

Slow me down 02:30

Lyrics:

[English]

Just slow me, slow me down

Slow me down, slow me down

Rushing and racing and running in circles

Moving so fast, I'm forgetting my purpose

Blur of the traffic is sending me spinning, getting nowhere

My head and my heart are colliding, chaotic

Pace of the world, I just wish I could stop it

Try to appear like I've got it together, I'm falling apart

Save me, somebody take my hand and lead me

Slow me down (Slow me down)

Don't let love pass me by

Just show me how (Show me how)

'Cause I'm ready to fall

Slow me down (Slow me down)

Don't let me live a lie

Before my life flies by

I need you to slow me down

Sometimes I fear that I might disappear

In the blur of fast-forward I falter again

Forgetting to breathe, I need to sleep, I'm getting nowhere

All that I've missed I see in the reflection

Passed me while I wasn't paying attention

Tired of rushing, racing and running, I'm falling apart

Tell me, oh, won't you take my hand and lead me

Slow me down (Slow me down)

Don't let love pass me by

Just show me how (Show me how)

'Cause I'm ready to fall

Slow me down (Slow me down)

Don't let me live a lie

Before my life flies by

I need you to slow me down

Just show me

I need you to slow me down

Slow me down, slow me down

The noise of the world is getting me caught up

Chasing the clock and I wish I could stop it

Just need to breathe, somebody please

Slow me down
