Downtime by Tapestry Lyrics

Slow it on down, slow it on down
Can I please come down?
Please just let me down
Slow it on down, slow it on down
Can I turn around? Can I just slow it on down? Slow it on down
Ants prancing around, oh the comfort of the ground

Please let me off of this thing
I’m nearly pulling down the strings
I’m so scared of where I’m going
Is it over? Was that really it?
I know that I can’t fight it, could I just please be uninvited?
I’ll keep quiet I, won’t tell, it can’t be time to leave my shell behind
Can I design a life in time for my arrival
And chance survival like I’ve got a clue, a plan, or shoes
Cause’ all I know is the ebb and flow
If I could sleep with open eyes…
If I could just fall asleep with open eyes…
