Well everybody's wondering how this world will get around
Now that we're all running out of gas
But me I'm kind of thankful that this world is slowing down
Seems to me we was movin' much too fast

Well folks are gonna have to slow it down
Aw but that won't stop the world from goin' round
Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of
What if we were runnin' out of love

Well everybody's thinking that this world will fall apart
Cause we ain't got no fuel to feed the flame
But what if we all lost the love we use to fill our hearts
Seems to me life wouldn't be the same

Yeah folks are gonna have to slow it down...

Well everybody's wondering just how cold it's gonna get
How we're gonna keep each other warm
The simplest solution to the problem I've seen yet
Is to cuddle up with a someone in your arms

Yeah folks are gonna have to slow it down...

Yeah I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of
What if we were runnin' out of love
