Verse 1]

Nobody warned me how fast it all goes,

one day you’re young, next day your old.

Know why your old man stayed up all night,

starin’ out a window in the kitchen light.

Nobody warned me

about the speed of life.

How the best days disappear

while you were busy strugglin’ in life.

Nobody warned me

you could wait this long…

to finally meet the right heart

when your life is gone.

Nobody tells you the years move quiet,

slip through your hands while you’re standin’ beside ‘em.

You keep thinkin’ there’ll always be time…

then somebody you love is gone before their time.

Nobody warned me

how beautiful and cruel

this whole life could somehow be

all at the same time too.

Nobody warned me

how fast the years fly by…

one day you’re lookin’ for yourself…

wonderin’ how it all slipped by.

Nobody warned me

life could feel this strange…

how the world keeps movin’ forward

while everything and everyone change.

Nobody warned me

They didn't warn me
