 We drove all night to get to Corpus Christi
My parents slept right through, they never missed me
We were far from sleepin’ when the truth began to creep in
That we weren’t going home anytime soon
The morning light sure took us by surprise
We grabbed our clothes, watched a beautiful sunrise
We were one together and must have talked forever
And it was then and there I realized
I don’t want to wait even one more night
It’s hard to slow down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled, we’re holding on tight
We’re traveling at twice the speed of life
We worked our way through college waiting tables
Bought a little white house with a picket fence and cable
I asked if he was ready to become a mom and daddy
And then I found my answer in his eyes
And he said…
I don’t want to wait even one more night
It’s hard to slow down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled, we’re holding on tight
We’re traveling at twice the speed of life
Now our oldest girl is almost grown
She’s got a boyfriend of her own
I heard her sneaking out with him last night
And is she is anything like me
She’s desperate to be wild and free
We know it’s just a matter of time
‘Til she says…
I don’t want to wait even one more night
It’s hard to slow down when it feels so right
Knees buckled, white knuckled, we’re holding on tight
We’re traveling at twice the speed of life
