I hear you're leaving town
'Cause your tired of hanging around
The same city limit signs
You've been waiting around your whole life
Just like a baby bird
Nervous when it first learned
And spread its wings and fly into the air
Now I've got to tell you something
These words might hurt but please hold them
Long enough to feel their weight as they plea
Slow down
Slow down
Grab a coffee here with me
And take a second to breathe
Slow down
Slow down
Let's be quitet for a while
And i will try to make you smile
Slow down
You love it when it rains
'Cause it always washes away
The dirt between the cracs of everything that we think we see
Now all your bags are pact
Your father's head tips back into the chair
That he sits while he watches you slip away
He cries:
"Will you please forgive me darlin'?
I can't keep living broken hearted.
First it was your mother
Now its boun' to be you"
Slow down
Slow down
What about all our memories
When you were dancing sing for me
Slow down
Slow down
What happened to my baby girl
Who used to sit on top of the world
Slow down
You can travel the world just as fast as you feel to go
Grace the Atlantic shorelines
Sleep in hotels at Tokyo
Lose everything in Vegas
Then go falling in love in Spain
But like Arizonas canyons are holding your remains
I just want you to belive
That the invisible fraims what we see
And it's as beautiful as a babys eyes
And as incredible as the first time they breathe
Slow down
Slow down
Grab a coffee here with me
And take a second to breathe
Slow down
Slow down
Let's be quitet for a while
And i will try to make you smile
Slow down
