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   
 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 would never have to walk this world alone 
 I would not expect you to ever notice 
 You never had the time to be over joyed with me 
 If you could hear me now, dear then I wouldn't want to lose it all at once   
 Some of us will live our lives like we are just dragging our heels through the night 
 Some of us will stay in the darkest holes and some of us will find the light 
 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   
 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 would never have to walk this world alone 
 I would not expect you to ever notice 
 You never had the time to be over joyed with me 
 If you could hear me now, dear then I wouldn't want to lose it all at once
