Everybody's wonderin' how this world will get around Now that we're all runnin' out of gas But me I'm kinda happy that this world is slowin' down Seems to me we were movin' much too fast Now folks you're gonna have to slow it down (slow it down) But that won't stop this world from goin' round Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of What if we were running out of love Now 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 Now folks you're gonna have to slow it down (slow it down) But that won't stop this world from goin' round Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of What if we were running out of love Now everybody's wonderin' just how cold it's gonna get How they're gonna keep each other warm The simplest solution to the problem I've seen yet Is cuddle up with someone in your arms Now folks you're gonna have to slow it down (slow it down) But that won't stop this world from goin' round Well I could think of a whole lot worse of things to be out of What if we were running out of love What if we were running out of love What if we were running out of love
