they lead to stormy weather,
lost it now or never, for so long
Gave myself no option of slowing
Never quite knew where I was going
In a field I came upon a feather,
Brought it with me to a shade
When that bird appeared above me
I asked how it lost this part of him
So smooth and so strong, gliding along
Why leave anything behind?
Said I was moving too fast
Said I was mov ing too fast
Squeezing halts and starts and stops
Musky black over the treetops
I was cruising fast as ever
These days I just sit by the river
Think about the boy that I was
Turn my eyes up towards heaven
And it shines a lot more than it does
When you're moving too fast
When you're moving too fast
Mmm, when you're moving too fast
