slow down
take your time
you've got it in your head
that there ain't much left
and the years keep gettin away from you
I know it's hard
but you gotta stop holding your breath
so breathe slow
and take your time
now listen
some things take awhile
don't go so fast
rushin toward an end
you're gonna be alright
baby, you're gonna get there
some day
and sometimes "there" ain't always what we
think it's gonna be
but keep on goin, child, and you'll get where
you need to be
so breathe slow
and take your time
I know
you're sorry as hell for the things
you've done
and you really believed in yourself
before you let yourself down
you think they should have warned you
about these dog days
but believe me when I say
they come and go
and it ain't too late for you now
so breathe slow
and take your time
