Slow motion, slow motion baby
We want our love to last
Everything's so right
Why try to go so fast
And it's easy to lose sight
And then the moment's passed

Go easy, go easy baby
You know there's time for us
Even though this world seems to be speeding up
Maybe we can try to slow things down

Because we need to draw the line
Because we need to make the time
Because we need to sip the wine
Because the, the clock is running
It's going so fast
The future's coming but it's soon the past
It's here today and there's no turning back

Go lightly, go lightly baby
In time we'll find a way
It's never over, till it's over
Why rush it through?
Never pausing to admire the view

Slow motion, if we get tired
Then we can rest awhile
If we're gonna go, we're gonna go in style
Isn't that what life is all about?
