Slow
Turboweekend & Oh Land Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A shot in the dark,
Straight to the source.
Im a bullet on collision course
A blistering speed
Not to sink like a storm
Now you see me
Now you don′t
With that taste for flashing lights
You're moving away too fast for love
Making haste won′t make it right
Don't wanna run
So wont you stop me red light
Pull all the brakes
Don't wanna lose you burn up, this is too great
I hear the drums roll
Losing control
And move
Slow, slow, slow, slow
We′re moving slow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Slow oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Out of the black
Into the blue
Before you know, its all played through
Shaking so high, you′re falling apart
You need a firm hand to steady your heart
We're the taste for flashing lights
I might have moved too fast for love
Making haste won′t make it right
I don't wanna run no more
So wont you stop me red light
Pull all the brakes
Don′t wanna lose you burn up, this is too great
I hear the drums roll
Losing control
And move
Slow, slow, slow, slow
We're moving slow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Slow oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I′m tied up in this race
Faster for every round
Driving myself down, down, down
So wont you stop me red light
Pull all the brakes
Don't wanna lose you burn up, this is too great
I hear the drums roll
Losing control
We're moving slow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Stop me red light
Pull all the brakes
Don′t wanna lose you burn up, this is too great
I hear the drums roll
We′re losing control
And moving slow, slow, slow, slow
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Slow oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
