Don't Slow Down Lyrics

Ub40 Don't Slow Down

You might believe, and still you feel the chase has just
begun.
That you must reach that horizon before the setting of
the sun.
You chase the light in front of you, nightfall close
behind.
If you stop to catch your breath, you know what you will
find.

Don't slow down don't touch the ground.
You know what you will find.
That old grey man in tattered clothes following behind.

No time to stop, don't go to sleep, prepare to pay the
cost.
The hours and minutes are passing by, another day is
lost.
Impatience is a virtue, catch me if you can.
The seconds have been ticking by since your life began.
