slow motion
Louis York Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't wanna waste no time
While I have you in my life
Can we make a memory
Something I can hold on to?

'Cause in the blinking of an eye
I know all of this couldn't die
Babe lemme savor every single day with you

I wanna move in slow, slow motion, slow motion
Slow, slow motion, slow motion
Oh oh oh
Slow motion

I know you're gonna leave me one day
I know you're gonna say you can't stay
I don't have the luck when it comes to love
I can't even believe you're here now
Even though my arms are all up around you
I know that my best won't be enough

Because a day will come it's inevitable
But if you love someone
You gonna let them go
'Till then I wanna

Slow motion, slow motion
Slow, slow motion, slow motion

I don't wanna waste no time
While I have you in my life
Can we make a memory
Something I can hold on to?

'Cause in the blinking of an eye
I know all of this couldn't die
Babe lemme savor every single day with you

I wanna move in slow, slow motion, slow motion
Slow, slow motion, slow motion
Oh oh oh oh
Slow motion

I know you're gonna leave me babe
I know you're gonna leave me

I just wanna take my time
While I have you in my life
Can we make a memory
Something I can hold on to?

'Cause in the blinking of an eye
I know all of this couldn't die
So babe lemme savor, every single day with you

I wanna move in slow, slow motion, slow motion
Slow, slow motion, slow motion




Oh oh oh
Slow motion
