The Road Runs On

I love speed, a wind in the person and you as if a bird fly, understand, as life not consolatory flies forward, ask, brake! Not for a long time there were the child, and today children already adult.

[Verse 1] I love the rush, the wind against my face You fly beside me, keeping up the pace Life doesn't stop to soothe us on the way It asks, “Are you coming?” then it's gone today [Pre-Chorus] I reach for the brake, but the road runs on A blink, a breath, and another year is gone [Chorus] Slow down, slow down—just long enough to see The little hands that used to reach for me Now tall in the doorway, keys in their hands How did our children grow up so fast? [Verse 2] There used to be toys scattered by the stairs A small voice calling, “Will you still be there?” Now grown-up plans and suitcases by the door I swear they were little just a day before [Pre-Chorus] I reach for the brake, but the road runs on A blink, a breath, and another year is gone [Chorus] Slow down, slow down—just long enough to see The little hands that used to reach for me Now tall in the doorway, keys in their hands How did our children grow up so fast? [Bridge] If time won’t wait, then let me say it clear: I loved the noise, the mess, the ordinary years Go find your road; I’ll leave the porch light on And keep that little laugh alive when you are gone [Final Chorus] Slow down, slow down—just long enough to see The grown-up hearts who still belong to me Go take the wide world, go make your own plans I’ll hold the years and wave as you pass [Outro] The wind keeps moving, the road keeps turning I love you—go, the whole world’s yours
