Speed Of Life |
Like ghosts on open windows |
The curtains rise and fall |
The past is a foreign country |
At the dark end of the hall |
And the morning is an offering |
To the shelter of the day |
But the violent come and they bury it away |
Time goes by at the speed of life |
Slower than a slow dance on a hot summer night |
Faster than the skin breaks on the edge of a knife |
And we just go on at the speed of life |
Like questions begging answers |
The stars appear at night |
What’s it mean to love somebody |
What’s it mean to be alive |
I heard a little girl laughing |
At her first sight of snow |
Saw an old man dying |
In a room he didn’t know |
While the world turns through the ages |
It’s a most peculiar ride |
Holding on to one another |
Moving at the speed of life |
We just go on at the speed of life |
A family on the midway in the carnival lights |
Moving in a circle through the sounds and the sights |
And it all goes by at the speed of life |
Time goes by at the speed of life |
Slower than a slow dance on a hot summer night |
Faster than the skin breaks, baby |
On the edge of a knife |
And we just go on and on at the speed of life |
Moving at the speed of life |
Speed of life |
On and on and on and on |
On and on and on and on |
