Lyrics

13 wants to be 16
16 can drive a car
16 wants to be 21
21 gets to hit the bar
21 wants to be 30
30 feels too old

The world keeps spinning, round and round
Round and round we go

We're all just moving at the speed of life
(Feeling in motion)
No fast forward and no rewind
(Chain that can't be broken)
Can't slow down the hands of time
(Waves upon the ocean)
We're all just moving at the speed of life
The speed of life

A smile leads to a first kiss
A first kiss to a diamond
A diamond brings the sweetest thing
Keeps ya up all night cryin'
Kindergarten, senior year, so long mom and dad
That smile turns in to 30 years
They fly by just like that

We're all just moving at the speed of life
(Feeling in motion)
No fast forward and no rewind
(Chain that can't be broken)
Can't slow down the hands of time
(Waves upon the ocean)
We're all just moving at the speed of life
The speed of life

We only get so many trips around that setting sun
You know we gotta make the most of each and every one

(We're all just moving at the speed of life)
(So enjoy the ride)
(Enjoy the ride)
(Yeah enjoy the ride)

We're all just moving at the speed of life
(Feeling in motion)
No fast forward and no rewind
(Chain that can't be broken)
Can't slow down the hands of time
(Waves upon the ocean)
We're all just moving at the speed of life
The speed of life

13 wants to be 16
(Feeling in motion)
16 wants to be 21
(Chain that can't be broken)
21 wants to be 30
(Waves upon the ocean)
We're all just moving at the speed of life
The speed of life
