Walking Slow

Jackson Browne · Late for the Sky [1990]

Walking slow down the avenue

Through my old neighbourhood

Don't know why I'm happy

I've got no reason to feel this good

Maybe it's because I'm all alone

And I've got no place to go

And everywhere I look I see

Another person I'll never know



I've got a thing or two to say before I walk on by

I'm feeling good today, but if I die

A little farther along

I'm trusting everyone to carry on



Pretty little girl running up and down the street

With no shoes on

I've got a pretty little girl of my own at home

Sometimes we forget we love each other

And we fight for no reason

I don't know what I'll do if she ever leaves me alone



I've got a thing or two to say before I walk on by

I'm feeling good today, but if I die

A little farther along

I'm trusting everyone to carry on



I'm putting down my left foot

I'm putting down my right foot...
