Speed of Sound lyrics by the voice of a generation, Eddie Vedder:
Yesterdays, how quick they change
All lost and long gone now
It's hard to remember any thing
Moving at the speed of sound
Moving with the speed of sound
And yet I’m still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I’ll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a sun,.. that just don’t come
Can I forgive what I
Cannot forget
And live a lie
I could give it one more try
Why deny this drive inside?
Just looking for some peace
Everytime I get me some
It gets the best of me
Not much left you see
And yet I’m still holding tight
to this dream of distant light
and that somehow I’ll survive
But this night has been a long one
Wiating on a word,.. that never comes
A whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts?
Wide awake & reaching out
It’s gone so quiet now
Could it be I’m farther out?
Moving faster than the speed of sound

Yesterdays how quick they change
ReplyDeleteYou're lost and long gone now
Want to remember anything
Moving at the speed of sound
With the speed of sound
And yet im still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
In that somehow I'll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a sun that just done come
Can I forgive what I
cannot forget and live a lie
I could give them one more try
Why deny this drive inside
Just looking for some piece
Everytime I get me some
It gets the best of me
Not much left you see
And yet Im still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
In that somehow ill survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiitng on a word that never comes
The whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts
Im wide awake and reaching out
Its gone so quiet now
Could it be im farther out
Moving faster than the speed of sound
Thank You!
ReplyDeleteWow! The most beautiful song I have heard in ages!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved and still love Pearl Jam and Eddie Vedder's lyrics.
ReplyDeleteBut this song it one of a kind, Cant wait to see you live again this year in Nov.
Thank you
'Want to remember anything
ReplyDeleteMoving at the speed of sound '
I guess it may be:
'It's hard to remember anything
Moving at the speed of sound '
I don't know if I'm not wrong.
maybe and update is in order, a lot of the lyrics are incorrect.. i'm just sayin.

ReplyDeleteYesterdays, how quick they change
All lost and long gone now
It's hard to remember any thing
Moving at the speed of sound
Moving with the speed of sound
And yet I'm still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I'll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a sun that just don't come
Can I forgive what I
Cannot forget
And live a lie?
I could give it one more try
Why deny this drive inside
Just looking for some peach
Everytime I get me some
It gets the best of me
Not much left you see
And yet I'm still holding tight
To this dream of distant light
And that somehow I'll survive
But this night has been a long one
Waiting on a word that never comes
A whisper in the dark
Is that you or just my thoughts?
Wide awake & reaching out
It's gone so quiet now
Could it be I'm farther out?
Moving faster than the speed of sound
