SLOW ME DOWN Richard Russell

In between the edge and the river
In between the street and the town
There’s a place I remember
Watching the sun go down
And the moon would rise
It used to slow me down

In between the time and the season
In between insane and profound
There’s a still point if you listen
Makes the lost seem found
If I can find that place…
It always slows me down
Lay me down easy, let me slow
Lay me down easy, let the time go

In between the dark and the morning
In between the earth and the ground
There is the sudden recognition
That we are at no time bound
It gives the whole world pause
To hear a sound
Lay me down easy, let me slow
Lay me down easy, let the time go
A trick so simple, yet so hard to do
Step aside and see the spinning
From outside…it always
Slows me down
