I sense a tension in the air
in the noisy busy atmosphere
it's a nervous world outside
I never know when to start or to stop

so, take it slow
I'm through with speeding up

another night out of my life
I feel the wasted hours slipping away
a crazy whirlpool of events
a race with time that turns the night into day

so, take it slow
I'm through with speeding up

people making more demands
taking my time, my will, my life away
I find it hard to answer no
I feel so tired, weak, restless and low

so, take it slow
I'm through with speeding up
