A Lifetime lyrics
Allie woke up 8 a.m.
Graduation day
Got into a car
And crashed along the way
When 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 R.E.M. song
Was playing in my mind
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
'Til 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 R.E.M. song
Was playing in my mind
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 sitting in the lights?
When I got home, heard the phone
Your parents had arrived
You know your dad set his jaw
Your mom just smiled and sighed
But they left soon and I went to my room
Played that disc that you'd given me
You know I shut my eyes
I swear, I could hear the sea
When 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 R.E.M song
Was playing in my mind
Yeah, three and a half minutes
Three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime
