lyrics by John Farrar

There was a time when I was in a hurry as you are
I was like you
There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view
I was like you

Now I don't mean to make you frown
No, I just want you to slow down

Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?

Running around as you do with your head up in the clouds
I was like you
Never had time to lay back, kick your shoes off, close your eyes
I was like you

Now you're not hard to understand
You need someone to take your hand

Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong? x

Song Comments

The Best of Time's
Here's a song fit for any party.

The Bitter Guy's Station
How did this absolutely raucous party song get ignored? The only station it made it on is the artist's own. Probably the best bass playing on any rock song on IMP by the great Weapon X.

Mushroom Magpie on Toast
WTF?
