Slow It Down Lyrics

Neil Diamond Slow It Down

Pick it up. Hurry up son. Eat on the run if you wanna get done.
Greed, speed, where does it lead you?
Wanna succeed? You thinking you need to?
But are you really sure?

It's a lot to endure, but I got me a cure.
Slow it down! Slow it down, yea.
Slow it down.
Take your time and you'll find your time has a meaning.
Easy now.
Catch those sounds of your heartbeat before it's leaving.

You say you want satisfaction,
Try standing away from the action,
Get some traction between you and the scenery.

Sail away,
Not too fast, it don't last, just thought I would mention.
Day by day,
See that view, it's for you, just pay some attention.

Forget about competition, your due for an incommission,
Stop your wishing, you won't get there by dreaming.

Slow it down.
Slow it down, yea.
Take your time.
Even Einsten reclined, designing his theory.
Doing fine.
Make it flow, let it go, you'll see it more clearly.

You're looking for bigger and greater,
And counting on sooner or later.
That's the way, kid around, gettin' weary.

Slow it down.
Slow it down.
Slow it down.
Slow it down, yea.
Slow it down, slow it down.
