- Slowdown Sundown LyricsSundown coming down too soon, no time to be alone
So I'll take a glass of memories and understand the blues
Oh they're the last thing you lose
Slowdown sundown, all I really need is time
For faded love songs and feelings in the wine
Let them take me down the line
Sunrise, a woman's eyes, good loving one warm afternoon
Here's to all the strong ones who don't care if they win
The kind I'll never see again
Slowdown, give me just a little while
It's not the darkness, it's just the night's so long
Puts the sadness in the song
Here's to someday when someone understands it
Why life keeps turning like a mad thing
Until that someday I'll just play what I have to play though I play it alone
Slowdown sundown, all I really need is time
For faded love songs and feelings in the wine
Let them take me down the line
So I'll take a glass of memories and understand the blues
Oh they're the last thing you lose
Slowdown sundown, all I really need is time
For faded love songs and feelings in the wine
Let them take me down the line
Sunrise, a woman's eyes, good loving one warm afternoon
Here's to all the strong ones who don't care if they win
The kind I'll never see again
It's not the darkness, it's just the night's so long
Puts the sadness in the song
Here's to someday when someone understands it
Why life keeps turning like a mad thing
Until that someday I'll just play what I have to play though I play it alone
Slowdown sundown, all I really need is time
For faded love songs and feelings in the wine
Let them take me down the line
