Lyrics
Allie woke up 8am, graduation day Got into a car, crashed along the way
We arrived late to the wake, stole the urn while they looked away And drove to the beach 'Cause I knew you'd want it that way
And you were standing On the hood of the car Singing out loud When the sun came up
And I know I wasn't right But it felt so good And your mother didn't mind Like I thought she would And that rem song was playing in my mind And three and a half minutes Felt like a lifetime
Felt like a lifetime
And you move like water I could drown in you And I fell so deep once in you 'Till you pulled me through
You would tell me, "no one is allowed to be so proud, they never reach out, when they're giving up"
And I know I wasn't right But it felt so good And your mother didn't mind Like I thought she would And that rem song was playing in my mind And three and a half minutes Felt like a lifetime
Are you sitting in the lights? Or combing your hair again? And talking in rhymes? Are you standing in the lights?
When I got home, heard the phone, your parents had arrived And your dad set his jaw, your mom just smiled and sighed
(And you move like water) But they left soon, and I went to my room Played that disc that you'd given me And I shut my eyes Swear I could hear the sea
And we were standing On the hood of your car Singing out loud when the sun came up
And I know I wasn't right But it felt so good And your mother didn't mind Like I thought she would And that rem song was playing in my mind And three and a half minutes Three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime
