Slow down you crazy child
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 the day

But you know when the truth is told
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
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
And know you can't always see when you're right
You’re right

Got your passion, you got your pride
Don’t you know that only fools are satisfied
You're gonna dream on
Just 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 alright you can afford to lose a day or two
Why don't you realize
Vienna waits for you

Why don’t you realize
Vienna waits for you
