That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything…
…is never as it seems
(When I fall asleep)
[Drop]
I'd like to make mysеlf believe
That planеt Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay…
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
(When I…

…be gone
In a day or two
[Post-Chorus]
Ha
Ha
Ha
Ha
[Verse 2]
So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning…

…of loathing
Broken your servant I kneel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems what's left of my human side
Is slowly changing in me
(Will you give…

…slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look…

…[Chorus]
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm…
…asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Slowly
Never as it seems
[Bridge]
(Please take me away…
…from here)
(Please take me away from here)
(Please take me away from here)
[Verse 1]
They said farewell
(Jar, jar, jar)
[Chorus]
Slowly
Never as it seems
Slowly
That planet Earth turns slowly…

…[Intro]
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time…
…goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes…
…by so slowly
I'm hung up on you
I'm hung up on you
[Chorus]
Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up, I'm hung up on you
Waiting…

…[Verse 1]
How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange?
Where were you while we were gettin' high?
Slowly…
…that tear away now from your eye
Slowly walking down the hall
Faster than a cannonball
Where were you while we were gettin' high?
[Chorus…
…]
[Verse 3]
How many special people change?
How many lives are livin' strange?
Where were you while we were gettin' high?
Slowly…

…getting late to give you up
I took a sip from a devil's cup
Slowly, it's taking over me
Too high, can't come down
It's…

…no break
Fakes and snakes quickly lead to mistakes
And as the tightrope within slowly starts to thin
I can only hope…

…[Verse 1]
Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
No time to hesitate
Those who run seem to have all the fun
I'm caught up, I don't…
…know what to do
[Pre-Chorus]
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
I don't know what…
…goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goеs by so slowly
I don't know what to do
[Chorus]
Every little thing that you say…

…get lonely
Slowly
Moving up slowly
Inertia keeps
She's moving up slowly
Slowly
Moving up slowly
Inertia creeps
Moving up slowly…
She comes
Moving up slowly
She comes
Moving up slowly
Inertia creeps
Moving up slowly
She comes
Moving up slowly
Moving up slowly…
…is endearing
Between us is our kitchen
Would you found my irritant's itching
Been here before
Been here forever
Moving up slowly
Inertia keeps…

…turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
'Cause I'd get…
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread (thread, thread)
I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly
It's…
…'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar (jar, jar)
I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly
It's hard…

…is killing me slowly
I think I think too much
‘Bout kids who don't know me
I'm so sick of myself
I'd rather…
…-comparison is killing me slowly
I think I think too much
‘Bout kids who don't know me
I'm so sick of myself
I'd rather…
…is killing me slowly
I think I think too much
‘Bout kids who don't know me
I'm so sick of myself

I'd rather…

Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes by so slowly
Time goes…
…by so slowly
Every little thing that you say or do
I'm hung up
I'm hung up on you
Waiting for your call
Baby night and day
I'm fed up…
I'm tired of waiting on you
Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
No time to hesitate
Those who run seem to have all…

…a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
They call her name at seven-thirty
I pace…
…for
Now she's feeling more alone
Than she ever has before
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
Off the coast and I'm headed…
…nowhere
She's a brick and I'm drownin' slowly
As weeks went by, it showed that she was not fine
They told me, "Son, it's time…
