All at once

Simpson Charlie

Some of us will live our lives
Like we are just living life on the run
Some of us will die in our old age
Others of us will die young

But sometimes it feels like I am just
Getting so many things wrong
It feels like I'm walking down my last mile
And my God, it just feels so long

Please just slow it down
I'm walking off these years
Please just slow it down
'Cause I can't stand the tears

But I would not expect you to understand it
'Cause things never turned out the way we planned it
I just hoped that I would know you
And I never have to walk this world alone

I would not expect you to ever notice
You never had the time to be overjoyed with me
If you could hear me now, yeah
Then I wouldn't want to lose it all at once

Some of us will live our lives
Like we are just dragging our heels through the night
Some of us will stay in the darkest holes
And some of us will find the light

And sometimes it feels like I am just
Getting so many things wrong
It feels like I'm walking down my last mile
And my God, it just feels so long

Please just slow it down
I'm walking off these years
Please just slow it down
'Cause I can't stand the tears

But I would not expect you to understand it
'Cause things never turned out the way we planned it
I just hoped that I would know you
And I never have to walk this world alone

I would not expect you to ever notice
You never had the time to be overjoyed with me
If you could hear me now, yeah
Then I wouldn't want to lose it all at once
