Lyrics
Goin Nowhere Fast
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
First star I see, I wish tonight;
First star I wish, I may, I might be something else,
Something real.
It's hard to walk among the clouds,
When you are tethered to the ground.
I know you know, how I feel.
'Cause the way, you look at me so sympathetically
When I was around.
You can't eat, or drink, or sleep;
And I can't even speak,
When you were around.
'Cause your feet don't touch the ground.
Tell me everything you need to
'Cause I'm goin' nowhere fast,
Goin' nowhere fast.
And I wanna be a real boy with no strings attached
'Cause I'm goin' nowhere fast,
Goin' nowhere fast.
Beneath the oceans where I lie,
Beneath the oceans where I'll die
A lonely soul, without a clue.
I know she had the devil's eye,
And it may come as no surprise:
She made a promise she couldn't keep.
'Cause the way she had me goin', I could not resist,
I fell for her scheme.
'Cause it's hard for me to believe in something I can't see,
It's all just a dream.
She wanted me to be,
Someone other than me.
Tell me everything you need to
'Cause I'm goin' nowhere fast,
Goin' nowhere fast.
And I wanna be a real boy with no strings attached
'Cause I'm goin' nowhere fast,
Goin' nowhere fast.
Tell me everything you need to.
I'm goin' nowhere fast, (goin' nowhere fast)
Goin' nowhere fast. (whoa!)
Yes, I'm goin' nowhere fast,
Goin' nowhere fast!
Yes, I'm goin' nowhere fast (goin' nowhere)
Goin' nowhere fast! (goin' nowhere fast)
Yes, I'm goin' nowhere fast! (goin' nowhere fast)
Goin' nowhere fast.
