It's been a long road I've been traveling
Traveling and taking it slow
Through all these small towns and places
I've been dreaming of all those sun-worn-people's faces.
And I've been trying hard this year
To give a little more love out than what I was given
I've learned my fair share of lessons
And I wandered a little more out in that sea of questions
Like if you live fast you'll die fast
Love fast and it won't last,
So hold on to what you have, oh
Hold it against your bones
You've gotta live hard and love hard.
Don't be afraid if you fall apart
Won't you take this dance with me?
It might be slow but it'll set you free.
I got ten sleeps in Ten Sleep
Drank good beer with the best old people
That I'll ever meet.
And down in good ole Santa Fe,
Out in the Moonlight,
I saw for miles and miles when I turned off my headlights.
On 395 I saw the milky way through my passenger window,
So I rolled it down to let that stream of stars flow by.
The Eagles were playing on the radio 'Life in the Fast Lane.'
Well I sure do love them but hell that ain't the way for me
'Cus if you live fast you'll die fast
Love fast and it won't last,
So hold on to what you have, oh
Hold it against your bones
You've gotta live hard and love hard.
Don't be afraid if you fall apart
Won't you take this dance with me?
It might be slow but it'll set you free.
Free
'Cus if you live fast you'll die fast
Love fast and it won't last,
So hold on to what you have, oh
Hold it against your bones
