Lyrics Fast As You Can - Minnie Driver

Fast As You Can

Oh be a man, as fast as you can
Oh be a man, as fast as you can
Growing up wild, out in the fields
In awe of the stars, and the power they wield
Oh you loved them anyway
Don’t think they noticed you
See how the stars change, from summer to fall
The sole indication, that we’re moving at all
Carry the world, with the hands of a child
You can’t be a boy, she wants you to be wild
She was the sun, sun, sun
And you were the moon
And the light of the sun
Fills up the room
Oh you loved her anyway
And she tried to love you
When she was asleep, you’d watch her face
Taken in sleep to a more peaceful place
You’d stand by the door, cause you were her guard
And you’d love her in silence, and it wasn’t that hard
Cause she was the sun, sun, sun
And you were the moon
And the light of the sun
Eclipses the moon
Oh you loved her anyway
And she tried to love you
She never asked you, what you’re dreaming of
She told you 'bout Texas, and liquor and love
She was hard-edged and broken, she blamed a man
But she told you to be one, as fast as you can
