Fast Cars

How can I defend,
"Let’s live for now and not then"
We’re chasing taillights,
let ‘em fade into the distance
Let’s say the engine stalled and start again

Turn around, let’s turn around
It’s a dark road we been heading down
Trust me tonight, I swear I know where we are
We’re gonna run all the lights
We’re gonna blow right through the radar

Fast cars
We are fast cars

How can I pretend
the signs don’t say “dead end”
So many hearts just wind up in a junkyard
And memories are nothing but spare parts

Turn around, just turn around,
we’ll leave the past behind us now
Come on, we ain’t gonna crash,
it’s time we ain’t slowing down
We’ll pull ahead
of the pack, slip through the cracks
‘cause we are

Refrén:
Fast cars
On a long ride
Take your foot off the brake
Let’s just put it in drive
We are fast cars
On the inside
There’s no turning back
On the highway of life
Fast cars
We are fast cars

Sha la, sha la
Flying through the stop signs
Sha la, sha la
Running over bad times
Sha la, sha la
Gunning down the daylight
Counting days like white lines
Holding on for our lives

We are fast cars
We are

Refrén

Sha la, sha la
Sha la, sha la
We are fast cars
Sha la, sha la
We are fast cars
We are fast cars
