Slow Down
The past few months have been a whirlwind just to get back to center
And I'd be lying if I told you that I honestly feel better
I'm happy to hear you're doing fine
Still trying to get you off my mind
I took your advice and I've been trying just to follow it to the letter
The past few months have been a whirlwind just to get back to center
And I'd be lying if I told you that I honestly feel better
You told me the world would try and do me in
I guess that this is how the story ends
Exhausted, sick, and hoping just for the better
And I've worn this heart into the ground
As these summer greens fade into brown
I know I'll see you soon somehow, up north
Lets slow down for just a weekend
We could take the time to pretend the world back home doesn't exist
Man I could get used to this
Lets slow down and we could stay
Forget about your day to day
In that town, in that place I call my own
The clock's been shattered, we grew up so fast
Remember these moments cause they're all you have
It's hard to see your kids and cousins, how they've grown
Gone out to make the world their own
Three hundred miles up the coast without me
And I can feel it subtly slipping away
And I'm clutching at what's left
There's only one more summer with the kids at home
And that's all we're gonna get
Yeah that's all I'm gonna get
Lets slow down for just a weekend
We could take the time to pretend the world back home doesn't exist
Man I could get used to this
Lets slow down and we could stay
Forget about your day to day
In that town, in that place I call my own
Elizabeth got married just yesterday
You should have seen her on her wedding day
You'd be so proud of all of us I hope
And as we all get older and all move away
I'd give anything for it to stay like this
And for this to be home
To stay like this
And for this to be home
Lets slow down for just a weekend
We could take the time to pretend the world back home doesn't exist
Man I could get used to this
Lets slow down and we could stay
Forget about your day to day
In that town, in that place I call my own
In that town, in that place I call my home
And I'd be lying if I told you that I honestly feel better
I'm happy to hear you're doing fine
Still trying to get you off my mind
I took your advice and I've been trying just to follow it to the letter
The past few months have been a whirlwind just to get back to center
And I'd be lying if I told you that I honestly feel better
You told me the world would try and do me in
I guess that this is how the story ends
Exhausted, sick, and hoping just for the better
And I've worn this heart into the ground
As these summer greens fade into brown
I know I'll see you soon somehow, up north
Lets slow down for just a weekend
We could take the time to pretend the world back home doesn't exist
Man I could get used to this
Lets slow down and we could stay
Forget about your day to day
In that town, in that place I call my own
The clock's been shattered, we grew up so fast
Remember these moments cause they're all you have

Lets slow down and we could stay
Forget about your day to day
In that town, in that place I call my own
In that town, in that place I call my home
