Lyrics
Motion in Slow
By Daryl Stevenett
(Verse 1)
I’ve been runnin’ crazy, for half my life,
Chasin’ my dreams, under neon lights.
Every miles a blur, and every gigs the same,
and I never remember to tell em my name
(Pre-Chorus)
Now I’m watchin’ the wind in an old oak tree
Feels like the earth is talkin’ to me.
(Chorus)
I gotta hurry up, and hurry to the next show,
Sometimes life sucks, when your on the road
I told myself, there’s only one way to go —
Living in the keys… and Motion in slow.
(Verse 2)
I used to measure my worth, by the clock on the wall,
But time don’t matter, when you’re hearin’ the call.
more black coffee, and a cheap cigar
life’s too short, to get too far
(Pre-Chorus)
Now the road unwinds like a river bend,
And I’m startin’ to think about livin’ again.
(Chorus)
I gotta hurry up and hurry to the next show,
sometimes life sucks, when your on the road
I told myself, there’s only one way to go —
Living in the keys… and Motion in slow.
(Bridge)
The beauty hides in the in-between,
The breath, the pause, the space unseen.
It’s not the rush, it’s the letting go —
So give me the good stuff …and motion in slow
(Final Chorus / Outro)
No more hurry, no more shows
My brain says let the heart take control.
Just like lovin’ there’s only one way to go —
Talk to me….Motion in slow.
Ya baby...Motion in slow.
Motion in slow.
