Speed Of Sound lyrics

Yesterdays, how quick they change

All lost and long gone now

It's hard to remember anything moving at the speed of sound

Moving with the speed of sound

And yet I'm still holding tight to this dream of distant light

In that somehow I'll survive

But this night has been a long one

Waiting on a sun that just don't come

Can I forgive what I cannot forget

And live a lie?

I could give it one more try

Why deny this drive inside, just looking for some peace

Every time I get me some it gets the best of me

I'm not much left, you see

And yet I'm still holding tight to this dream of distant light

In that somehow I'll survive

But this night has been a long one

Waiting on a sun that just don't come

A whisper in the dark

Is that you or just my thoughts

I'm wide awake and reaching out

It's gone so quiet now

Could it be I'm farther out?

Moving with the speed of sound
