Slow down, you crazy child.
You're so ambitious for a juvenile.
But then if you're so smart, tell me why are you still so afraid?
Where's the fire? What's the hurry about?
You better cool it off before you burn it out.
You got so much to do and only so many hours in a day.
Don't you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you can just get old?
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through.
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?
Slow down, you're doing fine.
You can't be everything you wanna be before your time,
Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight, tonight.
Too bad, but it's the life you lead.
You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need.
Though you can see when you're wrong,
You know, you can't always see when you're right, you're right.
You've got your passion. You've got your pride,
But don't you know that only fools are satisfied?
Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true.
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?
Slow down, you crazy child.
Take the phone off the hook and disappear for a while.
It's all right you can afford to lose a day or two.
When will you realize Vienna waits for you?
Don't you know that when the truth is told
That you can get what you want or you can just get old?
You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through.
Why don't you realize Vienna waits for you?

这个歌词让我想起昆德拉的小说slowness。我回头把以前的笔记翻出来。大致是说现代
人的生活节奏太快，心浮气躁。要慢下来，看一朵花怎么盛开。
我走路做事一向都很急。我同学形容我是“急急地，有条理且清楚地”。有一次上课铃
响的时候我冲上楼梯，一个男同学在我身后笑说你怎么老是跑，有那么多事值得跑么。
那句话给我印象特别深，哈哈。
billy joel, 以前karoun贴过他的and so it goes，给我印象也很深。歌词也很美。尤
其喜欢这一句：
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
我觉得是指花开花落，人来人往，再浓的感情也会淡；即便你现在对我那么好，迟早也
会离去。everything changes; nothing lasts.

And So It Goes
Artist(Band): Billy Joel
In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along
I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense
And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose
But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break
And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
So I would choose to be with you
As if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows
