1st Verse   
   
We drove all night to get to Corpus Christi   
My parents slept right through   
They never missed me   
We were far from sleepin'   
When the truth began to creep in   
That we weren't goin' home anytime soon   
   
2nd Verse   
   
The mornin' light sure took us by surprise   
We grabbed our clothes   
Watched a beautiful sunrise   
We were one together   
And we must have talked forever   
And it was then and there I realized that   
   
Chorus   
   
(And) I don't want to wait even one more night   
It's hard to slow it down when it feels so right   
Knees buckled, white knuckled   
We're holdin' on tight (holdin' on tight)   
(We're) travelin' at twice the speed of life   
(Yea, yea, yeah yeah)   
   
3rd Verse   
   
We worked our way through college waitin' tables   
Bought a little white house with a picket fence and cable   
I asked if he was ready   
To become a Mom and Daddy   
And then I found my answer in his eyes   
And he said...   
   
(Repeat Chorus)   
   
Bridge   
   
Now, our oldest girl is almost grown   
She's got a boyfriend to love her own   
I heard her sneakin' out with him last night   
And if she's anything like me   
She's desperate to be wild and free   
We know now it's just a matter of time   
'Til she says...   
   
(Chorus Out)
