Stop
Sheryl Crow--諓蝜迵斕僕砅 Lyrics

Find someone in love
Look for someone you love and connect with them.

Hold them so close
Be close to the one you love.

It's not close enough
However close you are to your loved one, you always want to be closer.

Moment to moment time's slipping away
Time passes quickly and relentlessly, so make the most of every moment with the one you love.

While you're looking for something you're hoping to find
In your search for something more, don't forget to appreciate what you already have.

Are the things that you wanted within all the time
The things you're searching for may have been right in front of you all along, but you didn't realize it until later.

You say stop
Addressing the person to whom the song is directed, who has asked to stop everything

Stop the world spinning
Stop everything that is happening in our lives, everything that keeps us distracted and from our attention to what is truly important

Faster and faster
Time seems to go by faster as we get busier and more involved in the complexities of modern life.

We're losing our way
We're becoming lost in our own lives with too much going on and too little time to focus on what really matters.

Stop all this running
Stop running around and chasing after things that don't matter and focus on what truly matters.

Wanting to stay in one place
Choosing instead a life that is stable and meaningful, rather than one that is constantly in motion with no sense of purpose

Oh I know I was wrong
Admitting fault in a previous situation.

Selfish am I to let you go on
Realizing how selfish one was in thinking only of themselves rather than thinking of their partner.

Just couldn't see what your love meant to me
One failed to see the value of their partner’s love and what it truly meant to them.

Till it was gone and all hope has faded away
Losing the one you love, and all hope of a future with them finally faded away.

I could beg I could pray
Desperately trying to get back what one has lost.

That you'd come back one day
Hoping that one day, their lost love will be returned to them.

Next time I know
In the future, the person will not make the same mistakes they have made in the past.

There's no time to waste
Time is a valuable resource and should not be wasted.

If there is a next time
If the opportunity arises again to find love, the singer plans to do it right this time.

I will stand up and say
The singer will be honest and forthright with their feelings.

I'm only beginning to understand half the way
Acknowledging that there is still much to learn and explore in terms of love.

Time slips away
Time goes by quickly and we need to cherish the moments we have.

Away

Slips away

Away
