You
Your life`s an endless mission
Blind to the consequences
While earthly poisons
Drain the lifeblood out of you
You`re living like a candle
And if it burns too quickly
You really need to find
A way to slow it down
Slowdown
You`ve got to live for something
Slowdown
Before it gets away
Slowdown
You`ve got to set aside
Some time to get it right
You
You never think about it
But life is like a window
And if it`s left open or shut
It`s up to you
You need to share with someone
And if it don`t come easy
You`re gonna have to find
A way to slow it down
Slowdown
You`ve got to live for something
Slowdown
Before it gets away
Slowdown
You`ve got to set aside
Some time to get it right
Sometimes you`ll find
That even fools can offer wisdom
In their views of the world
And it`s gold
You
Your life is in the fastlane
You need to take it easy
You really need to find
A way to slow it down
Slowdown
You`ve got to live for something
Slowdown
Before it gets away
Slowdown
You`ve got to set aside
Some time to get it right
Sometimes you`ll find
That even fools can offer
Wisdom in their views
Of the world...
Slowdown
You`ve got to live for something
Slowdown
Before it gets away
Slowdown
Before it gets away
Slowdown
Slowdown
