TIMES A FADIN FAST

[Verse 1] Sun on the porch rail Quarter tank and dust Mama said, "Boy, move" Now the world moves us I got a watch with a crack And a truck with a cough Every mile marker hums What I ain't got lost Your name on my phone Like a brake light glow I keep reachin' back But the river don't slow [Pre-Chorus] Oh, it slips like sand Through a calloused hand One blink, then it's gone Can't hold what's gone [Chorus] Times a fadin fast Times a fadin fast Hold me while it lasts Hold me while it lasts Times a fadin fast Times a fadin fast We were here, now past We were here, now past [Verse 2] Grocery bag in the seat Pair of boots by the door Little dog in the yard Still waitin' for more I burned through a summer Like a match in rain Thought I'd save a few days But they ran off the lane You laugh at the screen Then it goes dark blue I miss the old me And I miss holdin' you [Pre-Chorus] Oh, it slips like sand Through a calloused hand One blink, then it's gone Can't hold what's gone [Chorus] Times a fadin fast Times a fadin fast Hold me while it lasts Hold me while it lasts Times a fadin fast Times a fadin fast We were here, now past We were here, now past [Bridge] [Half-time] If I could slow that train I'd park it by the creek Tie my name to the fence And keep one more week But the moon keeps turnin' And the clock won't grieve So I kiss this moment And let it breathe [Chorus] Times a fadin fast Times a fadin fast Hold me while it lasts Hold me while it lasts Times a fadin fast Times a fadin fast We were here, now past We were here, now past
