lyrics

AS FAST AS I CAN

I know I know I’m going as fast as I can
But please understand I'm half of a man right now
Not really making plans right now
I’m looking at the tattoo on my hand right now

It's faded but forever there
I'm lonely but right now I'm here

(CHORUS)
I wish I could let go and be free like you
You seem to be having so much fun doing what you do
I know I know that there's more chances than time
But I can't seem to get it right in my mind, in my mind

Now I know she lived it all in her head
There was no one else there
except maybe her crazy friend oh yeah
And she is truly lost in space
Look at these tear stains down my face

They're fading but forever there
And I'm lonely but right now I'm here

(CHORUS)

(SOLO)

I know, I know I’m going as fast as I can
But please understand I'm half of a man right now
I’m not really making plans right now
I’m just looking at this tattoo on my hand right now

It's faded but forever there
And I'm lonely but right now I'm here

(CHORUS)

Well I wish I could let go and be cool like you
You seem to be so very confident in everything you do
I know you know that there's more chances than time
But I can't seem to get it , I, I , I can't seem to get it right
In my mind, in my mind

I know, I know
I'm going as fast as I can
