Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Where the cars go by fast
On the way to the house
We would lay in the grass
And look up at the clouds
[Verse 2]
Yeah, the stars disappeared
Where the lights seem to last
And time moves slow
Where the cars go by fast
[Verse 3]
There's a road all the way
Where we used to roam
I'm a ghost from the past
Where the cars go by fast
[Verse 4]
Where the cars go by fast
And never stop long to stay
They're just lookin' for gas
Or lost along the way
[Verse 5]
I look out of my window
At what never was
I don't know where they're going
Where the cars go by fast
[Verse 6]
There's a place in my mind
Where I keep goin' back
More and more down the line
Where the cars go by fast
Where the cars go by fast
Where the cars go by fast
