Slow Time Down

(album: Make My Move - 2008)

Lord I don't do this near enough I know
And I'm driving so that's why my eyes ain't closed
I wanna start by saying thanks for all I have
But this life you gave me's flying by so fast

My dad ain't getting any younger
I don't know how many summers
We got left to fish out on the lake
My baby girl is three years old
I can't believe how much she's grown
It won't be long till I'm giving her away
And I ain't asking you to stop
Those hands on the clock from spinning round
Could you slow time down?
Please just slow time down

You give me twenty four good hours every day
Lord I let way too many slip away
Every breath I get to take is up to you
But there's still some things I know I oughta do

I need to call up my best friend
We ain't talked since I don't know when
I could use a laugh and we really should catch up
And I fall in love again each night
With that angel that you made my wife
Fifty years won't nearly be long enough
And I ain't asking you to stop
Those hands on the clock from spinning round
Could you slow time down?
Please just slow time down

My dad ain't getting any younger
I don't know how many summers
We got left to fish out on the lake
My baby girl is three years old
I can't believe how much she's grown
It won't be long till I'm giving her away
And I ain't asking you to stop
Those hands on the clock from spinning round
Could you slow time down?
Please just slow time down
Slow time down
