A Lifetime-Jody Watley

[00:01.07]A Lifetime [00:01.67]Allie woke up 8am [00:05.00]Graduation day. [00:08.19]Got into a car, [00:10.50]And crashed along the way. [00:14.19] [00:14.56]When we arrived late to the wake, [00:17.43]Stole the urn while they [00:19.41]Looked away, [00:20.65]And drove to the beach [00:21.98]'cause i knew you'd want it [00:23.63]That way. [00:25.54] [00:26.77]And you were standing [00:27.75]On the hood of the car [00:29.96]Singing out loud [00:31.43]When the sun came up. [00:32.46] [00:33.00]And i know i wasn't right, [00:35.16]But it felt so good. [00:38.49]And your mother didn't mind, [00:41.38]Like i thought she would. [00:45.31]And that rem song was playing [00:48.26]In my mind. [00:51.83]And three and a half minutes [00:56.41]Felt like a lifetime [00:57.59] [01:02.77]It felt like a lifetime [01:03.72] [01:09.38]And you move like water [01:15.57]I could drown in you. [01:21.75]And i fell so deep once, [01:27.99]Till you pulled me through [01:30.78] [01:34.74]You would tell me [01:35.58]"no one is allowed to be so proud [01:38.55]They never reach out [01:40.03]When they're giving up." [01:41.06] [01:41.57]And i know i wasn't right, [01:43.66]But it felt so good. [01:47.68]And your mother didn't mind, [01:49.98]Like i thought she would. [01:53.83]And that rem song was playing [01:56.51]In my mind. [02:00.35]And three and a half minutes [02:04.99]Felt like a lifetime [02:07.78] [02:13.07]Are you sitting in the lights? [02:18.26]Or combing your hair again, [02:21.38]And talking in rhymes? [02:25.41]Are you sitting in the lights? [02:29.21] [02:31.70]When i got home, heard the phone, [02:34.38]Your parents had arrived. [02:37.46]And your dad set his jaw [02:39.36]Your mom just smiled and sighed. [02:42.23] [02:43.98]But they left soon [02:45.33]And i went to my room. [02:47.07]Played that disc that you'd given me, [02:49.97]And i shut my eyes [02:51.86]Swear i could hear the sea. [02:54.45] [02:56.53]When we were standing [02:57.97]On the hood of your car [02:59.62]Singing out loud when the sun came up. [03:01.86] [03:02.69]And i know i wasn't right, [03:04.81]But it felt so good. [03:08.76]And your mother didn't mind, [03:11.11]Like i thought she would. [03:15.04]And that rem song was playing [03:17.49]In my mind. [03:21.42]And three and a half minutes, [03:27.83]Three and a half minutes, [03:31.60] [03:32.46]Felt like a lifetime.
