"Don`t Slow Down" by UB40

You might believe, and still you feel  
the chase has just begun;  
That you must reach that horizon before  
the setting of the sun.  
You chase the light in front of you,  
nightfall close behind;  
If you stop to catch your breath,  
You know what you will find.  
  
(Chorus)  

Don`t slow down don`t touch the ground,  
You know what you will find;  
That old grey man in tattered clothes  
following behind.  
  

No time to stop, don`t go to sleep,  
prepare to pay the cost.  
The hours and minutes are passing by,  
another day is lost.  
Impatience is a virtue,  
catch me if you can.  
The seconds have been ticking by  
since your life began.
