[00:17.82]We drove all night to get to Corpus Christi
[00:23.39]My parents slept right through, they never missed me
[00:29.76]We were far from sleepin', when the truth began to creep in
[00:38.13]That we weren't goin' home anytime soon
[00:41.82]
[00:44.95]The mornin' light sure took us by surprise
[00:49.82]We grabbed our clothes, watched a beautiful sunrise
[00:57.32]We were one together and we must have talked forever
[01:04.14]And it was then and there I realized that
[01:11.64]And I don't want to wait even one more night
[01:14.57]It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
[01:18.51]Knees buckled, white knuckled, we're holdin' on tight
[01:23.89]
[01:25.26]We're travelin' at twice the speed of life
[01:29.74]
[01:32.74]Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
[01:41.81]We worked our way through college waitin' tables
[01:45.90]
[01:48.46]Bought a little white house with a picket fence and cable
[01:54.46]I asked if he was ready to become a Mom and Daddy
[02:02.96]And then I found my answer in his eyes and he said
[02:09.34]I don't want to wait even one more night
[02:12.09]It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
[02:16.09]Knees buckled, white knuckled, we're holdin' on tight
[02:22.59]We're travelin' at twice the speed of life
[02:27.15]
[02:28.84]Now, our oldest girl is almost grown
[02:33.03]She's got a boyfriend of her own
[02:36.21]I heard her sneakin' out with him last night
[02:40.03]
[02:42.15]And if she's anything like me
[02:45.96]She's desperate to be wild and free
[02:49.59]We know now it's just a matter of time 'til she says
[02:56.59]I don't want to wait even one more night
[02:59.90]It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
[03:03.59]Knees buckled, white knuckled, we're holdin' on tight
[03:09.72]We're travelin' at twice the speed of life
[03:14.03]I don't want to wait even one more night
[03:16.15]It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right
[03:19.41]Knees buckled, white knuckled, we're holdin' on tight
[03:26.38]We're travelin' at twice the speed of life
[03:32.14]
[03:36.20]Speed of life
