Ub40: "Don`t Slow Down" Lyrics

You might believe, and still you feel

The chase has just begun;

That you must reach that horizon before

The setting of the sun.

You chase the light in front of you,

Nightfall close behind;

If you stop to catch your breath,

You know what you will find.



(chorus)



Don`t slow down don`t touch the ground,

You know what you will find;

That old grey man in tattered clothes

Following behind.



No time to stop, don`t go to sleep,

Prepare to pay the cost.

The hours and minutes are passing by,

Another day is lost.

Impatience is a virtue,

Catch me if you can.

The seconds have been ticking by

Since your life began.
