But we never take time to slow things down

Verse 2
Time on your own, bored to the bone, its not the place for one
Desire and lust, a partners a must, but all the best have gone
Take to the road, lighten the load, with your memories driftin’ by
Stop for a break, it’s for your own sake, but you've never time to cry
Chorus
Bridge Part 1 (as verse)
Gear number five, makes you feel alive, but when you gonna realise
That gear number two maybe best for you, in someone else’s eyes
Bridge Part 2 (Played as verse but slowed down to 2 bars per one
chord in the verse)
Because it's all speed and greed theres no time to wait
Heading full on to an unknown fate
Tying knots too soon, bride or groom, should wait until their older.
Too many the same, such a shame, their leaning without a shoulder.
Chorus then repeated twice in full, finishes quietly with:
LAm DO
Na na nah, na na nah nah, na na nah nah nah nah nah
