  • Fast
    That's the kind of car you wanna drive when you're sixteen
    Fast
    That's the kind of boys that you want on your home team
    Fast
    Yeah, you think you're gonna catch your big dreams just like that
    Fast
    And here you are, looking back

    Sixty seconds now feels more like thirty
    Tick-tock, won't stop, around it goes
    Sand through the glass sure falls in a hurry
    And all you keep trying to do is slow it down, soak it in
    Keep trying to make the good times last as long as you can
    But you can't, man
    It just goes too fast

    Fast
    That's what your parents said when we were falling in love
    It's too fast
    There ain't no way the two of us were ever going to last
    But we did, and here we are, and our only problem is

    Sixty seconds now feels more like thirty
    Tick-tock, won't stop, around it goes
    Sand through the glass sure falls in a hurry
    And all you keep trying to do is slow it down, soak it in
    Keep trying to make the good times last as long as you can
    But you can't, man
    It just goes too fast

    Looking at you looking out the window right now
    Those eyes, that dress, that smile, that laugh
    If I could hit pause I would somehow
    But it don't work like that

    Sixty seconds now feels more like thirty
    Tick-tock, won't stop, around it goes
    Sand through the glass sure falls in a hurry
    And all you keep trying to do is slow it down, soak it in
    Keep trying to make the good times last as long as you can
    But you can't, yeah, man
    It goes too fast
    It just goes too fast
    Way too fast Writer/s: LUKE BRYAN, LUKE ROBERT LAIRD, RODNEY DALE CLAWSON
