Sometimes, in the dead of the night
I'm dreaming that I'm flying at the speed of light
In two seconds I'm brushing past the face of the moon
8 Seconds flat on the surface of Mars
I'm kicking up the red dust, drinkin in bars
I lean back and raise a toast to the stars tonight
When I'm dreamin' at the speed of light
Somedays, I'd just settle for the speed of sound
I'd step off this porch and blow a kiss to this whole damn town
I'd let off one of them sonic booms
And break all the windows in the living rooms
And blow off the hats of the boys at the old fairgrounds
Laughin' at the speed of sound
And you say "go
Why dont you go then?
If you want to go, why dont you decide?
Pick a road, just decide
Is it a train? Or a plane? or a bride?
Decide
Decide
Decide
Decide"
Your love makes me move at the speed of trees
I've laid down some roots, grown a head full of make believes
But if it weren't for that face of yours
I'd be rattlin' windows and blowin' down doors
Look at me here
I'm planted square down on my knees
On my knees
On my knees
I'm asking for the speed of trees
The speed of trees
