We come to your shores over misty millennia
|
From hustlers to emperors
|
For power and pleasure
|
We carve through the cars
|
Dance around the Daily News
|
Cue in the Grande ballabile
|
Even your ten-ton tone rings home for Marco Polo
|
|
Slow down
|
From a thread of sky
|
Slow down
|
To the warp and weft your being
|
Slow down
|
You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
|
Pretty damned good as you are
|
|
Slow down
|
Friend of mine
|
Slow down
|
In a terrible hurry for change
|
Slow down
|
As you unravel your marvels
|
From evergreen gardens
|
Remember we loved you this way
|
|
To treasure it all, scroll out to see
|
In gold, fire, wood, clay and water
|
Your structure and flow, adagio to allegro
|
With leaves to the tide
|
In full moon, plum blossom, we salute to you
|
|
Slow down
|
From a thread of sky
|
Slow down
|
To the warp and weft of your being
|
Slow down
|
Dynamic and playful, you opened my eyes yeah
|
You're pretty damned good as you are
|
|
Slow down
|
Friend of mine
|
Slow down
|
Could you go for progression not pace
|
Slow down
|
As you unravel your marvels
|
Don't lose them all on the way

From a thread of sky

You're beautiful, graceful, like no other

Slow down

Friend of mine
|
Slow down
|
You're in a terrible hurry to change
|
Slow down
|
Unravel your marvels, from evergreen gardens
|
Remember we loved you this way
|
|
Whoa, to the warp and weft of your being
|
You're beautiful, graceful, like no other
|
P-p-pretty damned good as you are

Then it's gone.
