Letra The world ain't slowin' down Ellis Paul

The world ain't slowin' down

I found you sitting on a suitcase crying
Beneath my feet I feel the rumble of a subway train
And I laugh out loud
ëcause its the one thing I hadnt been trying
The train came in breathless
The passengers restless
You say, baby, youll never change

(chorus)
You gotta get gone
You gotta get going
Hey, the world aint slowin down
For no one

Its a carnival calling out to you
And it sounds like a song
It hits you like scripture
You paint the picture
With colors squeezed from your hand
Werent you the kid
Who just climbed on a merry-go-round
Hey, look, the world aint slowin down

Out on the sidewalk
The pigeons do the moonwalk
Ill be dancing like fred astaire
The lampposts are rockin
The whole town is talking
Like a fool in a barbers chair
And I get the sensation
Its joy and frustration
Like getting caught by a drop of cold rain
Freedom can numb you
When theres no place to run to
It feels just like novocain

(chorus)

You packed up all your handbags
Youre throwing off the sandbags
I let go when you stepped free
I didnt want to lose you
You said, you didnt choose to --
Its just how your karma came
But thanks for the vision,
And the twenty-twenty wisdom
It hit me like a south-bound train

(chorus)
