Sugarland

Sugarland - Speed of Life lyrics

rate me

1st Verse

We drove all night to get to Corpus Christi

My parents slept right through

They never missed me

We were far from sleepin'

When the truth began to creep in

That we weren't goin' home anytime soon

2nd Verse

The mornin' light sure took us by surprise

We grabbed our clothes

Watched a beautiful sunrise

We were one together

And we must have talked forever

And it was then and there I realized that

Chorus

(And) I don't want to wait even one more night

It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right

Knees buckled, white knuckled

We're holdin' on tight (holdin' on tight)

(We're) travelin' at twice the speed of life

(Yea, yea, yeah yeah)

3rd Verse

We worked our way through college waitin' tables

Bought a little white house with a picket fence and cable

I asked if he was ready

To become a Mom and Daddy

And then I found my answer in his eyes

And he said...

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge

Now, our oldest girl is almost grown

She's got a boyfriend of her own

I heard her sneakin' out with him last night

And if she's anything like me

She's desperate to be wild and free

We know now it's just a matter of time

'Til she says...

(Chorus Out)
