Fast As You Can - Minnie Driver

Oh be a man, as fast as you can

Oh be a man, as fast as you can

Growing up wild, out in the fields

In awe of the stars, and the power they wield

Oh you loved them anyway

Don’t think they noticed you

See how the stars change, from summer to fall

The sole indication, that we’re moving at all

Carry the world, with the hands of a child

You can’t be a boy, she wants you to be wild

She was the sun, sun, sun

And you were the moon

And the light of the sun

Fills up the room

Oh you loved her anyway

And she tried to love you

When she was asleep, you’d watch her face

Taken in sleep to a more peaceful place

You’d stand by the door, cause you were her guard

And you’d love her in silence, and it wasn’t that hard

Cause she was the sun, sun, sun

And you were the moon

And the light of the sun

Eclipses the moon

Oh you loved her anyway

And she tried to love you

She never asked you, what you’re dreaming of

She told you 'bout Texas, and liquor and love

She was hard-edged and broken, she blamed a man

But she told you to be one, as fast as you can
