Lyrics In Slow Motion - Pet Shop Boys

In Slow Motion

Dreamy city
Still and quiet in the morning sun
Walking empty streets
Where on earth is everyone?
A silent sky above
Clouds scattered in the blue
It’s a perfect day for love
If that’s your point of view
Living in slow motion
Nothing seems quite real
Where’s the old commotion?
What’s the new big deal?
I’m just a failed flaneur
Looking for a gadabout
But where that life is lived
I have yet to figure out
There’s no one to tell me
No one to catch my eye
Living in slow motion
It’s a long goodbye
I’m looking for someone
To help me get into here
A practical dreamer
Who is gonna volunteer?
Living in slow motion
Nothing feels quite real
Such a strange emotion
What will be revealed?
Living in slow motion
Nothing seems quite real
Such a strange emotion
What will be revealed?
In slow motion
Drifting far behind
Real time
Now I’m living in
Slow motion
Drifting far behind
Real time
