There's a silence that came with the pain
Was a fear that accompanied change
Once was regret that came with your name
Now there's a peace that comes today
And i see now, i couldn't slow down
Long enough for our love to take hold
And i see how i couldn't slow down
Long enough for our love to grow
Had some hard years down in that mine
No memories of the sun in those times
Yeah, we broke our hearts and learned to cry
I'll tell you about it, then i'll send it down the line
And i see now, i couldn't slow down
Long enough for our love to take hold
And i see how i couldn't slow down
Long enough for our love to unfold
A certain sense of freedom comes with age
If you finally own the choices you've made
And there's no more desire to blame
No more heroes to show you the way
And i see now, i couldn't slow down
Long enough for our love to take hold
And i see how i couldn't slow down
Long enough for our love to unfold
And i see now
And i see now
And i see now
And i see now
