Lyrics
Description
(Verse 1)
We moved like city lights, quick to burn and pass
A photograph of us, edges bent from grasp
A fading touch on my skin, a message left unread
If we keep on racing, we'll lose what we once said
(Pre-Chorus)
Breathe with me, let the seconds stretch and bend
Hold the fragile lines we swore we'd never end
Small salvations live inside a paused embrace
Slow the world outside, find the map of your face
(Chorus 1)
Slow down, keep the time, keep my focus
Feel the soul, it finds us
Under dim street lamps where whispers bloom
Slow down, keep the time, I'm only with you
(Verse 2)
You were a midnight porch swing, the creak of truth at two
Bringing second chances back into view
A promise in the hush—don’t let it slip away
Slow hands on the clock keep the night from fray
(Pre-Chorus)
Every scar, every laugh, tucked like fragile gold
We trade our hurried hours for something slow and bold
This is what slowing saves: a touch that learns to stay
A soft repair for all the things we gave away
(Chorus 2)
Slow down, keep the time, keep my focus
Feel the soul, it calls us home
Now the moon leans close and lights the room with proof
Slow down, keep the time, I’m only with you
(Bridge — Sjava-inspired vocals / low register motif)
Ngikhona — I am here (call)
Sondela — come close (answer)
Thatha isikhathi, thula — take your time, be still
Ngiyakuthanda — I love you, I will (spoken-sung, low)
(Chorus 3 — full, building)
Slow down, keep the time, keep my focus
Feel the soul, it lifts us higher
City noise falls away, we burn steady and true
Slow down, keep the time, I’m only with you
(Call-and-response ad-libs behind chorus)
Hamba kancane — hamba kancane (go slowly)
Yebo, sondele — ngikhona (yes, come close — I'm here)
(Outro)
Slow down, keep the time, keep my focus
In the quiet, we find every faded clue
Slow down, keep the beat, let the night unwind
Forever in this steady, gentle groove with you
(Soft tag — whispered/soft singing)
Slow down, keep the time, keep my focus...
Hamba kancane, ngikhona, sondele.
