I turn my back to the wind To catch my breath. Before I start off again. Driven on. Without a moment to spend To pass an evening With a drink and a friend
I let my skin get too thin I'd like to pause. No matter what I pretend Like some pilgrim ― Who learns to transcend ― Learns to live As if each step was the end
Time stand still ― I'm not looking back ― But I want to look around me now See more of the people And the places that surround me Now
Freeze this moment A little bit longer Make each sensation A little bit stronger Experience slips away ......
I turn my face to the sun Close my eyes, Let my defences down ― All those wounds That I can't get unwound
I let my past go too fast No time to pause ― If I could slow it all down Like some captain. Whose ship runs aground ― I can wait until the tide Comes around
Make each impression A little bit stronger Freeze this motion A little bit longer The innocence slips away ......
Summer's going fast ― Nights growing colder Children growing up ― Old friends growing older Experience slips away ......
