Slow Down

Slow down... slow down...
To see the sun set and the leaves fall down.
Slow down...  slow down...
To hear him fret and soothe her frown.

Slow down... slow down...
Be here in the present, time never slows down.
So, slow down... slow down...
To play with Ria and read with Ron.

Time goes on, on and on...
Time spent with them would play Epione.
Soothe the pain and dry tears flown;
Mend little minds and the little hearts torn
