| I went to a place
|
| To repair and rest myself
|
| But I never managed
|
| The loop of the waves
|
| Crashing on my shore got stuck in my head
|
| And never got out
|
| Oh, it’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if I knew what I know now
|
| It’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if I was swimming in the shallows
|
| 'Cause then I wouldn’t be just spending my whole life
|
| Catching up to you
|
| But I held a seashell
|
| Close to my ear
|
| I listened
|
| To the sound of the sea
|
| It made me swear
|
| An oath of secrecy
|
| I couldn’t tell a soul what it told me
|
| Oh, it’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if I knew what I know now
|
| It’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if I was swimming in the shallows
|
| It’d be better if the world would all slow down
|
| It’d be better if I was swimming in the shallows
|
| It’d be better if I was swimming in the shallows
|
| The shallows
|
| The shallows
|
| It made me swear
|
| An oath of secrecy
|
| I couldn’t tell a soul what it told me, no
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me, no
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me, no
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me, no
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me, no
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me, no
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me
|
| I can’t tell you what it told me, no |
