Hiraeth by Quieter Lives

Please slow down
Make this stop
This isn't happening
There's one year 'til I'm home
After that, who knows what follows?

I've got flannel under fleece
But this weather's got a hold on me
Making me remember the days already gone
Thawing out their memories, but I'm still hanging on

Please slow down
Make this stop
I really must be dreaming
I'm eighteen, fast asleep
Waiting for them to wake me

If you could take some advice that I got from your brother one night:
"All the simple things that we think bear little weight are the things we miss the most when we're away"

Please slow down
Make this stop
Don't let these days pass you by
Just relax, take your time
You've still got all of your life

I hope you crash through the panes of your glass ceiling
And learn to embrace your thoughts and your feelings
And when it's all said & done
Gather the friends that you love and say...

Please slow down
Make this stop
I can't believe it's over
All those years that we spent are long gone
But it was worth it
