Slow Down Lyrics - Real Animal - Alejandro Escovedo

Let me take your hand 

There's something I want to show you 

Close your eyes and you can hear 

The music in the wind 

Out on the pier 

That's the Ike & Tina Soul Revue 

I don't know what this means to you 

But it was everything to me 

I was free as the sun 

Shining on our faces 

Free as the light that comes down 

From some other places 

Slow down, slow down 

It's moving much too fast 

I can't live in this moment 

When I'm tangled in the past 

Won't you take my coat 

Baby, won't you wear it 

There's so much I, want to share with you 

Every little thing I am 

Put your arms around my body 

Feel your skin against my skin 

This is where my life begins 

Begins again with you 

The past is gone 

But it still live inside of me 

Hold on tight 

As we slip into this revelry 

Slow down, slow down 

It's moving much too fast 

I can't live in this moment 

When I'm stumbling through the past 

Slow down, slow down 

Yeah it's too fast 

The love in this moment 

Got to let go of the past 

Slow down 

It's too fast 

Live in this moment 

But I'm tangled in the past
