Talk To Time

I was on a beach somewhere Ice cream running down my hand I was on my daddy's shoulders When he was still Superman Mama with a Birthday cake Blowing out her 29 Back when she had more years ahead of her Than she had behind If I could talk to time I'd say, "Why you always flying?" You say you're on my side But you ain't no friend of mine You don't do second chances You don't like looking back I blame it all on you But it's me who's losing track Wish I could put you in a bottle Wish I could hold you in my hand Wish you would just slow down, slow down But you don't give a damn Drinking in a parking lot, ha! God, we thought that we were cool Back when we believed that home was something We could always come back to Then it was graduation day We were on a football field We were begging you to just speed up Why couldn't you have just stood still? If I could talk to time I'd say, "Why you always flying?" You say you're on my side But you ain't no friend of mine You don't do second chances You don't like looking back I blame it all on you But it's me who's losing track Wish I could put you in a bottle Wish I could hold you in my hand Wish you would just slow down, slow down But you don't give a damn, oh! She was every perfect kiss She was everything I loved But you just couldn't help yourself You had to go run out on us If I could talk to time I'd say, "Why you always flying?" You say you're on my side But you ain't no friend of mine You don't do second chances You don't like looking back I can blame it all on you But it's me who's losing track Wish I could put you in a bottle Wish I could hold you in my hand Wish you would just slow down, slow down But you don't give a damn No, you don't give a damn No
