I Turn My Back To The Wind
To Catch My Breath,
Before I Start Off Again.
Driven On Without A Moment To Spend
To Pass An Evening With A Drink And A Friend

I Let My Skin Get Too Thin
I'd Like To Pause.
No Matter What I Pretend
Like Some Pilgrim --
Who Learns To Transcend --
Learns To Live
As If Each Step Was The End

Time Stand Still -- I'm Not Looking Back
But I Want To Look Around Me Now
See More Of The People And The Places That Surround Me Now

Freeze This Moment A Little Bit Longer
Make Each Sensation A Little Bit Stronger
Experience Slips Away...

I Turn My Face To The Sun
Close My Eyes.
Let My Defences Down --
All Those Wounds That I Can't Get Unwound

I Let My Past Go Too Fast
No Time To Pause --
If I Could Slow It All Down
Like Some Captain, Whose Ship Runs Aground --
I Can Wait Until The Tide Comes Around

Make Each Impression A Little Bit Stronger
Freeze This Motion A Little Bit Longer
The Innocence Slips Away...

Summer's Going Fast, Nights Growing Colder
Children Growing Up -- Old Friends Growing Colder
Experience Slips Away...
