rush
time stand still [live birmingham england, 1988]
I turn my back to the wind To catch my breath, Before I start off again Driven on, Without a moment to spend To pass an 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 stands still See more of the people And the places that surround me now   Time stands still  Freeze this moment A little bit longer Make each sensation A little bit stronger  Experience slips away  Experience slips away   Time stands still  I turn my face to the sun Close my eyes, Let my defenses down All those 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 can wait until the tide comes around   Time stand still I'm not looking back But I want to look around me now Time stands still See more of the people And the places that surround me now  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 stands still Time stands 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 stands still  Summer's going fast Nights growing colder Children growing up Old friends growing older  Freeze this moment A little bit longer Make each sensation A little bit stronger  Experience slips away  Experience slips away  The innocence slips away
