Lyrics Fast / Slow - Jay Filson

Do you remember growing up
Nothing ever moved fast enough
Our parents always asking us
What's the rush? I swear

Sometimes it feels like it was only last week
Me and my sister watching Mary-Kate and Ashley
And other times it feels
Like that's a different century
Life just keeps changing speeds

Fast and slow, time it goes by so
Fast and slow, maybe that's why my mind's
Always feeling like it's young and old
Memories so far away that feel so close
Cause life is moving fast and slow
For all we know it's almost over
But I don't want it to be over yet

Got a couple cousins
Who were born when I was eight
Now they're almost old enough to graduate
(From college)
Somebody tell me when did that become okay
My grandma says just wait until you're my age
(She's eighty-one)
Sometimes it starts to feel like maybe it's just me
And that I really might be going crazy
But most times I think it's actually
Cause life keeps changing speeds

Fast and slow, time it goes by so
Fast and slow, maybe that's why my mind's
Always feeling like it's young and old
Memories so far away that feel so close
Cause life is moving fast and slow
For all we know it's almost over
But I don't want it to be over yet

No not yet cause I don't know
If I'm ready for what comes next
I guess it's out of my control
Just holding on to my lifeboat
Helpless as the current flows

Fast and slow, time goes by so
Fast and slow, maybe that's why my mind's
Always feeling like it's young and old
Memories so far away that feel so close
Cause life is moving fast and slow
For all we know it's almost over
But I don't want it to be over yet
(Fast and slow)
No not yet
(Young and old)
No not yet
(Fast and slow oooh)
No I don't want it to be over yet
