Speed of Light
Now that I'm over the hardest part
I sit by myself, turn the TV on, and I think about it all
Years down the drain, almost overnight
So easily rinsed me out your life like
Damn, you're wasting no time
Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light
Said "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye
That was quick, that was quick
Moving at the speed of light
That was quick, that was quick
Guess I didn't cross your mind
Shame I didn't cross your mind
Now, how I wish I could press fast-forward (uh-uh-uh)
To the day that I'm holding my brand-new lover on his motorbike
You walk the pavement on your own (oh-oh-oh)
Pass you by, and leave you in the smoke
'Cause I had spent these last few weeks getting all sentimental
Held onto the souvenirs and re-read all the letters
But damn, you're wasting no time
Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light
Said "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye
That was quick, that was quick
Moving at the speed of light
That was quick, that was quick
Guess I didn't cross your mind (guess I didn't cross your mind)
Shame, I didn't cross your mind
Oh, you could have waited for my tears to dry, dry
And you could have spared a thought and looked behind
Moving at the speed of light
Damn, you're wasting no time
Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light
Said, "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye
That was quick, that was quick
Ooh, that was quick
Forever, forever's a lie
I sit by myself, turn the TV on, and I think about it all
Years down the drain, almost overnight
So easily rinsed me out your life like
Damn, you're wasting no time
Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light
Said "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye
That was quick, that was quick
Moving at the speed of light
That was quick, that was quick
Guess I didn't cross your mind
Shame I didn't cross your mind
Now, how I wish I could press fast-forward (uh-uh-uh)
To the day that I'm holding my brand-new lover on his motorbike
You walk the pavement on your own (oh-oh-oh)
Pass you by, and leave you in the smoke
'Cause I had spent these last few weeks getting all sentimental
Held onto the souvenirs and re-read all the letters
But damn, you're wasting no time
Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light
Said "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye
That was quick, that was quick
Moving at the speed of light
That was quick, that was quick
Guess I didn't cross your mind (guess I didn't cross your mind)
Shame, I didn't cross your mind
Oh, you could have waited for my tears to dry, dry
And you could have spared a thought and looked behind
Moving at the speed of light
Damn, you're wasting no time
Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light
Said, "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye
That was quick, that was quick
Ooh, that was quick
Forever, forever's a lie
