| Some of us will live our lives
|
| Like we are just living life on the run
|
| Some of us will die in our old age
|
| Others of us will die young
|
| But sometimes it feels like I am just
|
| Getting so many things wrong
|
| It feels like I’m walking down my last mile
|
| And my God, it just feels so long
|
| Please just slow it down
|
| I’m walking off these years
|
| Please just slow it down
|
| 'Cause I can’t stand the tears
|
| But I would not expect you to understand it
|
| 'Cause things never turned out the way we planned it
|
| I just hoped that I would know you
|
| And I never have to walk this world alone
|
| I would not expect you to ever notice
|
| You never had the time to be overjoyed with me
|
| If you could hear me now, yeah
|
| Then I wouldn’t want to lose it all at once
|
| Some of us will live our lives
|
| Like we are just dragging our heals through the night
|
| Some of us will stay in the darkest holes
|
| And some of us will find the light
|
| And sometimes it feels like I am just
|
| Getting so many things wrong
|
| It feels like I’m walking down my last mile
|
| And my God, it just feels so long
|
| Please just slow it down
|
| I’m walking off these years
|
| Please just slow it down
|
| 'Cause I can’t stand the tears
|
| But I would not expect you to understand it
|
| 'Cause things never turned out the way we planned it
|
| I just hoped that I would know you
|
| And I never have to walk this world alone
|
| I would not expect you to ever notice
|
| You never had the time to be overjoyed with me
|
| If you could hear me now, yeah
