Slow Motion
Jarryd James Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Higher powers couldn't keep me from you, oh
But the sun is still shining on me
And the moon is in the sky when you're around
So you better be praying for me
That I make it home alive
Never let you go, no no
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, no, I won't
Even when I can't see straight
Even when I lose my faith
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, oh
Time moves in slow motion whenever I'm gone
Heavy on my heart and I feel it all night long
But the sun is still shining on me
And the moon is in the sky when you're around
So you better be praying for me
That I make it home alive
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, no no
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, no, I won't
Even when I can't see straight
Even when I lose my faith
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, oh
So many faces I've seen
But the only one that I need is you
It's you, it's you
Only one that I need is you
So many places I've been
You're the only place that I seek
Is love still real
Is love still real?
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, no no
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, no, I won't
Even when I can't see straight
Even when I lose my faith
I'll never let you go, never let you go
Never let you go, oh
