Time Stand Still
I turn my back to the windTo catch my breath,Before I start off again.Driven on,Without a moment to spendTo pass an eveningWith a drink and a friend
I let my skin get too thinI'd like to pause,No matter what I pretendLike some pilgrim-Who learns to transcend-Learns to liveAs if each step was the end
Time stand still-I'm not looking backBut I want to look around me nowSee more of the peopleAnd the places that surround me now
Freeze this moment a little bit longerMake each sensation a little bit strongerExperience slips away...
I turn my face to the sunClose my eyes.Let my defences down-All those woundsThat I can't get unwound
I let my past go too fastNo time to pause-If I could slow it all downLike some captain,Whose ship runs aground-I can wait until the tide comes around
