A lifetime Lyrics

Allie woke up 8 A.M.
Graduation day
Got into a car
Crashed along the wayAnd 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 wayAnd you were standing
On the hood of the car
Singing out loud
When the sun came upAnd I know, I wasn't right
But it felt so good
And your mother didn't mind
Like I thought she wouldAnd that R.E.M. song
Was playin' in my mind
And three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime, it felt like a lifetimeAnd you move like water
I could drown in you
And I fell so deep once, yeah yeah yeah

'Til you pulled me throughYou 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 wouldAnd that R.E.M. song
Was playin' in my mind, yeah
Three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetimeAre 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
You know, 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
You know, I shut my eyes
I swear I could hear the seaAnd we were standing
On the hood of your car
Singing out loud
When the sun came upAnd I know, I wasn't right
But it felt so good
And your mother didn't mind
Like I thought she wouldAnd that R.E.M. song
Was playin' in my mind, yeah
And three and a half minutes
Three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime
