Lyrics
THE FASTEST WAY TO GONE
Summertime at the fair;
Thought I found true love there.
Remember how we met?
We both played hard to get.
Now, it?ll be hard getting
Over you,
And begin forgetting
Our ?I do?s.?
And begin forgetting
Our ?I do?s.?
These battle lines
That we have drawn
All seem to say
We?d better find
The fastest way
To gone.
Your kisses were so sweet -
Till you turned down the heat.
Your embrace meant so much,
But somehow we lost touch.
We both watched the magic
Disappear.
That dark road to tragic
Begins here.
That dark road to tragic
Begins here.
These battle lines
That we have drawn
All seem to say
We?d better find
The fastest way
To gone.
Got a road map to ?Good-bye?
And one tear in my eye.
Gonna leave the table
While I?m good and able;
Love?s not being served here
Anymore.
I can see my way clear
To the door.
I can see my way clear
To the door.
These battle lines
That we have drawn
All seem to say
We?d better find
The fastest way
To gone.
We?d better find
The fastest way
To gone.
