Slow Motion

Slow Motion

Hours seem like days
And days are just my nightmare
I have 1 life to spare
And all my words just can’t reach you

So I just stay away
‘Cause no one said that life was fair
What my heart can’t repair
Time and space can be so cruel

It’s like a long time ago
The love we know
Was young and now it’s cold
And I stayed and prayed
That your feelings change 
While the earth goes round the sun
It feels like slow motion
Oh…

Children born and raised
And yesterday still clouds your mind
Now I know love is blind
‘Cause you can’t see that I’ve changed

But if this is the bed I made
Then when I lay down and close my eyes
I hope you realize
Your love could cure the pain

Just a foolish game
That we’re forced to play
How can you stay away??...

I believe I found love
You believe you’ve had enough

It’s like a long time ago
The love we know
Was young and now it’s cold
But I’ll wait and pray
That your feelings change 
While the earth goes round the sun
It feels like slow motion

I been guilty of the same
But I’ll neva do it again
Hold love back from them
Just so that they can pay
