"Time Won't Go Slowly" lyrics

"Time Won't Go Slowly"

Time won't go slowly though
I beg it to last
I just wanna be here with you
That's all I ask

And this could be the end of everything outside our walls
And empires could fall away and cities razed
I know I'd only wanna fall in love with you
Only wanna fall in love with you

Time won't go slowly though
Always so fast
You are the answer to
Every question I've asked

And this could be the end of everything outside our walls
And empires could fall away and cities razed
I know I'd only wanna fall in love with you
Only wanna fall in love with you

We need more time
But there's a little part of me that loves it when we rush
Can I go home?
Knowing that I'll never feel like I do now

Time won't go slowly though
I beg it to last
I just wanna be here with you
That's all I ask

And this could be the end of everything outside our walls
And empires could fall away and cities razed
I know I'd only wanna fall in love with you
Only wanna fall in love with you

We need more time
But there's a little part of me that loves it when we rush
Can I go home?
Knowing that I'll never feel like I do now
We need more time
But there's a little part of me that loves it when we rush
Can I go home?
Knowing that I'll never feel like I do now

Time won't go slowly
Ooh, it's so fast
Time won't go slowly
Ooh, it's so fast
