| Well it seems like only yesterday that I was just a girl | 
| Wondering through life without a car in this old world | 
| I’d climb upon the roof when everybody was asleep | 
| In the stillness of the night I could hear my own heartbeat | 
| I remember when the days seemed like they’d never ever end | 
| And time would take you by the hand and lead you like a friend | 
| But through the years it seemed that life was faster than I thought | 
| And now those lazy days are in the land that time forgot | 
| Cause it’s faster than a rocket | 
| And nobody’s going to stop it | 
| We’re soaring like a bird in flight | 
| And it will never leave you standing | 
| From the take off to the landing | 
| They’ll be nothing faster than the speed of life | 
| Nothing is faster than the speed of life | 
| One day I woke and it just hit me like a bullet from a gun | 
| I realized the years I’ve lived can never be undone | 
| And suddenly I didn’t have a single word to say | 
| But I wish that I knew what I now know today | 
| Cause it’s faster than a rocket | 
| And nobody’s going to stop it | 
| We’re soaring like a bird in flight | 
| And it will never leave you standing | 
| From the take off to the landing | 
| They’ll be nothing faster than the speed of life | 
| Nothing is faster than the speed of life | 
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah | 
| Cause it’s faster than a rocket | 
| And nobody’s going to stop it | 
| We’re soaring like a bird in flight | 
| And it will never leave you standing | 
| From the take off to the landing | 
| They’ll be nothing faster than the speed of life | 
| It’s faster than a rocket | 
| And nobody’s going to stop it | 
| We’re soaring like a bird in flight | 
| And it will never leave you standing | 
| From the take off to the landing | 
| They’ll be nothing faster than the speed of life | 
| Nothing is faster than the speed of life | 
| Nothing is faster than the speed of life |
