You know that I'd do anything
To be by your side
But now you're running too fast
I can't match your stride

You've got to slow down baby
Baby, slow down
You've got to slow down baby
Baby, slow down
You've got to slow down baby
Cause I'm tired of keepin' up with your time

When I first met you
I thought you were slow
But now I've got no time to think
I just got to go

The crowd that you've been running with
Is running too fast
They tell me pretty soon
You're gonna run out of gas

And when you finally stall on the side of the road
I'm the one that's gonna have to carry you home
