Speed Feels Better
Michael Tolcher
(sometimes he plays this 1/2 down, same chords)
When I was young you let me drive
Kept it under 55
Back then, I couldn t reach the pedals
You help me find the parachute
To catch the wind to slow the fall
Waiting for the dust to settle
And it s hard to hold on to the bird who flies
When you know it belongs to the skies
When you have to let it go until
One day, I ll hear everything you say
I might even try your way
I m not slowing down I ve found
Speed feels better
Faster, quicker I can get what I m after
I m not afraid of disaster
I like to ride the wilder side
Speed feels better
Boring and a waste of time
Till I take the leap you know it feels sublime
I get the rush then I know I m living
And it s hard to hold on to the bird who flies
When you know it belongs to the skies
When you have to let it go until
One day, I ll hear everything you say
I might even try your way
I m not slowing down I ve found
Speed feels better
Faster, quicker I can get what I m after
I m not afraid of disaster
I like to ride the wilder side
Speed feels better
It feels better, speed feels better
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah...
(?)
Maybe you re right
Maybe you know
I m on my own
Crash and burn you rise again
Leave the ground to ride the wind
I m gonna try if it takes forever
One day, I ll hear everything you say
I might even try your way
I m not slowing down I ve found
Speed feels better
Faster, quicker I can get what I m after
I m not afraid of disaster
I like to ride the wilder side
Speed feels better
It feels better, speed feels better, it feels better
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah...
