Slow Down Lyrics


Richie Havens Slow Down


The faces in my sleep
Are buried very deep
They only surface when I run in circles

As I go? round and? round
I cannot make a sound
I hear a voice
And it sounds like a miracle

Slow Down, Slow Down
You know that everything? s a showdown
Slow Down

The echoes in my mind
They? re working overtime
I cannot keep them all from testifying
A captivating smile
Really not my style
The pace is picking up there? s no denying

Slow Down, Slow Down
You know that everything? s a showdown
Slow Down

The bar is closed tonight
Everybody? s out of sight
Such a quiet light
When all Hell is breaking

But I keep moving on
Until the night is gone
I? ve got just one more chance
And that chance I? m taking

Slow Down, Slow Down
You know that everything? s a showdown
Slow Down

Slow Down, Slow Down
You know that everything? s a showdown
Slow Down

Slow Down, Slow Down
You know that everything? s a showdown
Slow Down
