Lyrics

Slowly, slow, my child
The world waits for you
And your window of time
Will come shining through
Slowly, slow, don't rush, you know
It'll all come easy
There's some things you can't take back
No regrets for what you're gonna get
Need some thinking down the line
Slowly, slow, my darling
I'm here for you
And every stumble, every fall
Breaks my heart in two
I only want the best for you
And every step makes up the mile
Even though it takes a while
And God will always smile on you, my child
So have faith, have faith
Just like the bird who feels the sun
And sings before the dawn has come
Have faith, have faith
Slowly, slow, my boy
I see you're strong
And everybody wants to find
A place where they belong
But don't you find yourself someday
In a cold and dark and lonely place
And you wonder how you got there
I know it gets clouded in your mind
And you wanna move faster
It seems you're running out of time
But I love you, together we'll get through
Don't you know
Slowly, slow
Slowly, slow, my son
You wanna be a man
And I guess those days are gone
When I used to hold your hand
Cause this is the age of winks and smiles
And butterflies deep inside
But you'll always be the coldness of my eyes
So have faith, have faith
Just like the bird who feels the sun
And sings before the dawn has come
Have faith, have faith
Slowly, slow, my child
The world waits for you
And your window of time
Will come shining through
Slowly, slow, don't rush, you know
It'll all come easy
