Fast As You Can Lyrics

Oh, be a man as fast as you can
Oh, be a man as fast as you can
Growing up wild, out in the fields
In awe of the stars and the power they wieldOh, you loved them anyway
Don't think they noticed youSee how the stars change from summer to fall
The sole indication that we're moving at all
Carry the world with the hands of a child
You can't be a boy, she wants you to be wildAnd she was the sun, sun, sun
You were the moon
And the light of the sun
Fills up the roomOh, you loved her anyway
And she tried to love youWhen she was asleep, you'd watch her face
Taken in sleep to a more peaceful place
You'd stand by the door 'cause you were her guard
And you'd love her in silence and it wasn't that hard'Cause she was the sun, sun, sun
You were the moon
And the light of the sun
Eclipses the moonOh, you loved her anyway

And she tried to love youShe never asked you, what you're dreaming of
She told you 'bout Texas, and liquor and love
She was hard-edged and broken, she blamed a man
But she told you to be one as fast as you can
