When I was a boy I went running off to school Went home every evening Like there was nothing else to do One night I looked out my window And while the moon was racing past I sat up there and wondered Am I goin' nowhere fast? I see the telephone post I watch a sparrow fly And all the lonely souls know But I just drive on by And I think of all the dreams there That never came to pass And I can't help but wonder Hey are we goin' nowhere fast? Nowhere fast And I don't have an answer And I don't have a clue Why people act so crazy But I guess I'm crazy too A little bit crazy too I watch my baby sleeping It's been a long hard day And she looks so peaceful Lost in the faraway Sometimes I just wanna hold her And make one moment last But all I do is wonder Hey are we goin' nowhere fast? Nowhere fast Nowhere Are we goin' nowhere fast?
