Ellis Paul - The World Ain't Slowin' Down Lyrics
I found you sitting on a suitcase cryingBeneath my feet I feel the rumble of a subway trainAnd I laugh out loudëcause its the one thing I hadnt been tryingThe train came in breathlessThe passengers restlessYou say, baby, youll never change(chorus)You gotta get goneYou gotta get goingHey, the world aint slowin downFor no oneIts a carnival calling out to youAnd it sounds like a songIt hits you like scriptureYou paint the pictureWith colors squeezed from your handWerent you the kidWho just climbed on a merry-go-roundHey, look, the world aint slowin downOut on the sidewalkThe pigeons do the moonwalkIll be dancing like fred astaireThe lampposts are rockinThe whole town is talkingLike a fool in a barbers chairAnd I get the sensationIts joy and frustrationLike getting caught by a drop of cold rainFreedom can numb youWhen theres no place to run toIt feels just like novocain(chorus)You packed up all your handbagsYoure throwing off the sandbagsI let go when you stepped freeI didnt want to lose youYou said, you didnt choose to --Its just how your karma cameBut thanks for the vision,And the twenty-twenty wisdomIt hit me like a south-bound train(chorus)
