Don't Slow Down — Ub40

You might believe, and still you feel The chase has just begun; That you must reach that horizon before The setting of the sun. You chase the light in front of you, Nightfall close behind; If you stop to catch your breath, You know what you will find.

(chorus)

Don`t slow down don`t touch the ground, You know what you will find; That old grey man in tattered clothes Following behind.

No time to stop, don`t go to sleep, Prepare to pay the cost. The hours and minutes are passing by, Another day is lost. Impatience is a virtue, Catch me if you can. The seconds have been ticking by Since your life began.
