She’s Slowin’ Down Again

She's slowing down again

She's slowing down again

Living life at a pace her own kids can't keep

She can see it's everything that she needs

Forced up by the gauges at the top of her dials

She can read it

She believes in it

She's slowing down again

She's slowing down again

Carrying all the weight

That surrounds her

Like it or not

When a breather's all that she really needs

Not just a pretty face

No there's so much more that she's got

She's the cash and carry

So extraordinarily

How many times have I seen you walk right by

Never stopping to look around

Nothing but determination in both blue eyes

You'll never get it all done lying down

She's slowing down again

She's slowing down again

Surface ain't a question of beauty

No it is not

It's the depths that she can barely impede

Brought up in the roll

Is her duty one of a lot

She's the cash and carry

So extraordinarily

She's slowing down again

She's slowing down again

How many times have I seen you walk right by

Never stopping to look around

Nothing but determination in both blue eyes

You'll never get it all done lying down

The obligations to her world I'm guessing

Can be refunded at the end

Of this mess that she's in

She's a true visionary

Extraordinarily

She's slowing down again

She's slowing down again

She's slowing down again
