about

words and music by John H Doan
Thoughts onl llfe seeming to move too fast sometimes

lyrics

Slow damn down, you're going too fast
Take this moment and try and make it last
Take that moment and try and hold it in your hands
The past catches up with you in the future so they say
Enjoy the day

Slow damn down, take a minute to think
Take a good long pull from the well you drink
it might be the last one for a long long time
And as you drink, think about the speed at which you will arrive

Slow damn down, you're playing too fast
Take that note and try to make it last
Let it linger on and on like the coming of a storm
Let it float among the other notes and dance and play a while before it's gone
