Slow
Sean P. Rogan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I could turn back time
I could have changed forever
In the blink of an eye
I keep rewinding
Everything we went through
Me and you
At the speed of light
At the speed of light
In the fast lane
It all changed
All I ever do
All I ever do
Is replay the heartbreak
I would have saved us
If I could relive that moment
In slow motion
I never saw it coming
Losing what we had
I know I'll spend a lifetime
Always looking back
I keep rewinding
Everything we went through
Me and you
At the speed of light
At the speed of light
In the fast lane
It all changed
All I ever do
All I ever do
Is replay the heartbreak
I would have saved us
If I could relive that moment
In slow motion
I can't stop thinking about you
Keep living without you
Anymore
I can't stop thinking about you
Keep living without you
Anymore
At the speed of light
At the speed of light
In the fast lane
It all changed
All I ever do
All I ever do
Is replay the heartbreak
I would have saved us
If I could relive that moment
In slow motion
I wish it could have been in slow
Slow motion
I would have saved us
I would have saved us
I would have saved us
