Slow Down
Embrace Life's Pace: Kris Kristofferson's Call to Slow Down and Discover Meaning
Lyrics
I said slow down
I advise you to slow down.
Slow down and live, my friend
Take it easy and enjoy life, my friend.
Take time, take time to understand
Allocate time to comprehend
The things, the things you hope to win
Understand the things you wish to achieve.
Before, before your journey's end
Do this before you reach the end of your journey.
Slow down, slow down and try to do
Slow down and make an effort
The things, the things that's right for you
Do what is right for you.
You know, you know
Be aware that
The soul, the soul
Your soul
You save could be your own
That you save could be your own.
Albert Abernathy never spent a foolish dime
Albert Abernathy was wise with his money
Rising at the crack of dawn and working overtime
He worked hard, rising early and putting in extra hours.
You know, he never told me how much happiness he found
He never disclosed the extent of his happiness.
Yesterday we laid him in the finest grave in town.
Recently, he was laid to rest in a splendid grave.
I said slow down
I reiterate, slow down.
Slow down and live, my friend
Take it slow and live fully.
Take time, take time to understand
Invest time to comprehend
The things, the things you hope to win
The things you desire to achieve.
Before, before your journey's end.
Complete this before your journey concludes.
Slow down, slow down and try to do
Slow down and make an effort
The things, the things that's right for you
Do what is right for you.
You know, you know
Be aware that
The soul, the soul
Your soul
You save could be your own.
That you save could be your own.
