Time passes slowly
Up here in the mountains
We sat beside bridges
An' walked beside fountains
Catch the wild fishes
That float thru the stream
Times passes slowly
When you're lost in a dream.

Once i had a sweetheart
She was fine an' good lookin'
We sat in the kitchen
While her mama was cookin'
Starin' out the window
To the stars high above
Time passes slowly
When you're searchin' for love.

Ain't no reason to go
In a wagon to town
Ain't no reason to go
To the fair
Ain't no reason to go up
Ain't no reason to go down
Ain't no reason to go anywhere.

Time pases slowly
Up here in the daylight
We stared straight ahead
An' tried so hard to stay right
Like a red rose of summer
That blooms in the day
Time passes slowly
Then fades away.
