Speed of Light

Now that I'm over the hardest part

I sit by myself, turn the TV on, and I think about it all

Years down the drain, almost overnight

So easily rinsed me out your life like

Damn, you're wasting no time

Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light

Said "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye

That was quick, that was quick

Moving at the speed of light

That was quick, that was quick

Guess I didn't cross your mind

Shame I didn't cross your mind

Now, how I wish I could press fast-forward (uh-uh-uh)

To the day that I'm holding my brand-new lover on his motorbike

You walk the pavement on your own (oh-oh-oh)

Pass you by, and leave you in the smoke

'Cause I had spent these last few weeks getting all sentimental

Held onto the souvenirs and re-read all the letters

But damn, you're wasting no time

Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light

Said "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye

That was quick, that was quick

Moving at the speed of light

That was quick, that was quick

Guess I didn't cross your mind (guess I didn't cross your mind)

Shame, I didn't cross your mind

Oh, you could have waited for my tears to dry, dry

And you could have spared a thought and looked behind

Moving at the speed of light

Damn, you're wasting no time

Found yourself somebody new at the speed of light

Said, "A first love is forever" when you kissed me goodbye

That was quick, that was quick

Ooh, that was quick

Forever, forever's a lie
