Todd Weisse - Slow Me Down Lyrics

Hey girl, can you give me a ride down to the lake where lonely lovers hide?
She said, "I'll take you up there, just promise me one thing
We won't tell anyone about it"
She ran down to the water with a fire in her eyes
That cut through the night and took him by surprise
Tanned and wet, she looked just like a dream
Before he knew what was real, they were laying out on the banks screaming
"Woah, alright!"

Stop! Baby listen up! Don't be blinded by what you're dreaming of
You have to wonder, how far can we see?
She said, "I don't care, as long as you're with me"
She took him by the hands and held them way up high and said
"Baby you and I will never die!"
It felt so good, so free and so right when he said
"Baby, I want to make you mine"
She said, "Woah Alright!"

Looking back on it now
He can't help but wonder where everything all went so wrong
How could something so perfect have so many flaws
And why does time move so relentlessly along?
In the silence of the night out there in the street
All alone with no one to turn to, he cradles his aching head, dead with defeat
And cries out into the night the same old song
"Woah, alright!"

Slow down, baby. Don't live your life too fast
Slow me down honey, because a love like that should have lasted
Slow down, baby. You know I'd love for you to stay
Slow down, baby. I can feel you slipping farther and farther away
