In the garden with the wild
I can feel you like a child
Seeing shadows in the room
By the fall and the rise
Of the young and the wise
Playing tag with the moon
Chasing you
When I was young you were only a ghost
Taking old friends leaving me alone
When we are grown
Tell me where do we go
So fast
Taking my cheeks in the palm of your hand
Making me weak running in the sand
If I can't keep you, nobody can so
Slow down, slow down
In the speed of the traffic
Or the rush in the rapids
When the ends come and meet
And I know you by the taste
From the moment we awake
Like the sour and the sweet
And you can't see
When I was young you were only a ghost
Taking old friends leaving me alone
When we are grown
Tell me where do we go
So fast
Taking my cheeks in the palm of your hand
Making me weak, running in the sand
If I can't keep you, nobody can so
Slow down, slow down
Slow down
When I was young you were only a ghost
Taking old friends leaving me alone
When we are grown
Tell me where do we go
So fast
Taking my cheeks in the palm of your hand
Making me weak, running in the sand
If I can't keep you, nobody can so
Slow down, slow down
Slow down
