Sugarland - Speed Of Life lyrics

Your rating:

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

We drove all night to get to Corpus Christi
My parents slept right through, they never missed me
We were far from sleep when the truth began to creep in
That we weren't going home anytime soon

The morning 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 I don't wanna wait even one more night
It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled
We're holding on tight (holding on tight)
We're traveling at twice the speed of life
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

We worked our way through college waiting 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...

I don't wanna wait even one more night
It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled
We're holding on tight (holding on tight)
We're traveling at twice the speed of life

Now, our oldest girl is almost grown
She's got a boyfriend of her own
I heard her sneaking 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

I don't wanna wait even one more night
It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled
We're holding on tight (holding on tight)
We're traveling at twice the speed of life

I don't wanna wait even one more night
It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled
We're holding on tight 
We're traveling at twice the speed of life
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
