It feels like I’m speeding,
things are going way too fast.
I need to slow it down a bit
and make the good things last.
From one day to the next
its almost a blur.
Gotta tap on the brakes
or I’ll miss that next curve.
If I find another hill to climb
that just might work.
My motor's in overdrive,
all systems on high alert.

But that’s life they say
when you’re traveling downhill,
with a tailwind behind you
caught up with a full sail.
If I could just ease off
maybe time would slow down.
I’d like to try all over again
and go another round.
I’d do it different this time
and savor the sweet things,
toss my cares away with a fling,
hear the bells go ting-a-ling.

Don’t let this bring you down
'cause I am a happy soul.
I’ve been put through the grinder
and I still came out whole.
It's enough to know that I’m happy
and filling someone else’s heart.
Think of me with a smile, not sadly,
when the time comes that I must part.
Yes, it’ll happen one day
I know that for sure,
now from here on out and to the end,
it’ll be just a blur.
