Songtext von It Came Too Fast

They rescued her body From out of the water Fighting the tide that was Too strong to save her Had taken her under It came too fast The summertime air Was closing around me No one could cry 'cause Our eyes were all empty My breath in the warm winds It came too fast I was eight years old And the sickness wave was coming Until my mother turned my face Away from the ocean I wasn't a child anymore It came too fast His life was so strange Believed it so special But time only proved How he hadn't changed things The avantgarde one Turned into mainstream I was eighteen years And so much younger Than all the young ones When she smiled at me And I found her longing I wasn't a child anymore It came too fast His life was so strange Believed it so special But time only proved How he couldn't change things The avantgarde one Drowning in mainstream It came so fast
