Faster Than the Speed of the Sound
Written by Jimmy Tittle and Andy Stahl · © All rights reserved
It happened so fast
I didn’t have a chance to say goodbye
I think a sonic boom
Must have shook the room
The way things were flyin’
She loaded up the truck
With all of her stuff
In record time
And when she hit the curb
It was just a blur
Then she was out of sight
Faster than the speed of the sound of her heart breakin’
And ‘fore I hit my knees with my pleas and my sweet persuadin’
She was over me and my memory was fadin’
Faster than the speed of the sound of her heart breakin’
I’ve always been the kind of man
To take things slow
But when it came to her
It was a fatal swerve
Off the canyon road
And I never would have done what I did
Lord, if I’d have only known
It all comes down to this
I guess she had to go
Faster than the speed of the sound of her heart breakin’
And ‘fore I hit my knees with my pleas and my sweet persuadin’
She was over me and my memory was fadin’
Faster than the speed of the sound of her heart breakin’
