[Intro]
D x 4 bars
Here comes your tattoos slowly fading
The breaks upon your heart are leaving scars
The battles for your freedom youâve been winning
They bought you time but theyâre costing you the war
[Chorus]
Slowing down, it donât come easy
When running hard beens flowing through your blood
You said goodbye so many times, itâs lost its meaning
And memories are all thatâs left to love
Oh, believe me, slowing down
It donât come easy
The wasted years of love in motel rooms
Your boots under another strangers bed
Waking in the morning way too soon
Yeah, leaving you s as lonely as it gets
[Chorus]
Slowing down, it donât come easy
When running hard beens flowing through your blood
You said goodbye so many times, itâs lost its meaning
And memories are all thatâs left to love
Oh, believe me, slowing down
It donât come easy
[Bridge]
You just canât stop the clock from turning back the time
But for her heart and soul, itâs worth trying
[Chorus]
Slowing down, it donât come easy
When running hard beens flowing through your blood
You said goodbye so many times, itâs lost its meaning
And memories are all thatâs left to love
Oh, believe me, slowing down
It donât come easy
Oh, believe me, slowing down
Oh, believe me, slowing Down
It donât come easy
