Wheatus - Time Stand Still (originally by Rush) lyrics
[Wheatus - Time Stand Still originally by Rush lyrics]
Turn my back to the wind
And catch my breath
Before I start off again
Driven on without a moment to spend
To pass the evening with a drink and a friend
I let my skin get too thin
I'd like to pause, no matter what I pretend
Like some pilgrim who learns to transcend
Learns to live as if each step was the end
Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
Time stand still
And see more of the people
And the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Experience slips away
Experience slips away
Time stand still
Turn my face to the sun
And close my eyes
Let my defenses down
All these wounds that I can't get unwound
I let my past go too fast
No time to pause, if I could slow it all down
Like some captain whose ship runs aground
I could wait until the tide comes around
Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
Time stand still
And see more of the people
And the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Make each impression a little bit stronger
Freeze this motion a little bit longer
The innocence slips away
The innocence slips away
Time stand still
Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
See more of the people
And the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Summer's going fast, nights growing colder
Children growing up, old friends growing older
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Freeze this motion a little bit longer
Experience slips away
Experience slips away
The innocence slips away
And catch my breath
Before I start off again
Driven on without a moment to spend
To pass the evening with a drink and a friend
I let my skin get too thin
I'd like to pause, no matter what I pretend
Like some pilgrim who learns to transcend
Learns to live as if each step was the end
Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
Time stand still
And see more of the people
And the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Experience slips away
Experience slips away
Time stand still
Turn my face to the sun
And close my eyes
Let my defenses down
All these wounds that I can't get unwound
I let my past go too fast
No time to pause, if I could slow it all down
Like some captain whose ship runs aground
I could wait until the tide comes around
Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
Time stand still
And see more of the people
And the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Make each impression a little bit stronger
Freeze this motion a little bit longer
The innocence slips away
The innocence slips away
Time stand still
Time stand still
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
See more of the people
And the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Summer's going fast, nights growing colder
Children growing up, old friends growing older
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Freeze this motion a little bit longer
Experience slips away
Experience slips away
The innocence slips away
