Slow It Down

Translate to:

ENGLISH ORIGINAL

I'd never met you, but I wanted to invite you to the party

Then you walked in with those green eyes, never stolen by nobody

And they flicker to the future, for a moment, I could picture

Then you touch me and I come back, and we're talking on the staircase

'Bout your big dreams on the big screens

Out of Georgia, now you're lonely in this city

Lyin' with me, and you're scared it's movin' quickly

Oh, now you're crying, you're in pieces

'Cause the only love you've ever known is Jesus

I can feel it

Oh, I hate that I'm the reason

That you're in your head right now

While your world is spinning out

So slow it down, take a moment now

We're too young to drown deep in dirty waters

Full of hopeless doubt, let me pull you out

Let me hold you now, let me slow it down

Ain't it funny how it changes?

How the future rearranges

I get nervous, oh, I'm anxious

Maybe loving you is dangerous

I could lose you like the others

Only girl that's never left me is my mother

Oh, I love her

And I know you'll probably hate it

But I'm in my head right now

So slow it down, take a moment now

We're too young to drown deep in dirty waters

Full of hopeless doubt, let me pull you out

Let me hold you now, let me (slow it down)

Slow it down when you're on the ground

And you're crying, I'm trying (slow it down)

To slow it down when you're spinning 'round

In your head

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

I'll help you slow it down
