Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life

Well, high school seemed like such a blur
I didn't have much interest in sports or school elections
And in class I dreamed all day, a rock 'n' roll weekend

And the girl in the front of the room
So close yet so far, y'know she never seemed to notice
That this silly school-boy crush wasn't just pretend
Ohohoh

Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life

And I went down to my old neighborhood
The faces have all changed, there's no one there left to talk to
And the pool hall I loved as a kid is now a seven eleven
Ohohoh

And I went downtown to look for a job
I had no training, no experience to speak of
And I looked at the holes in my jeans and turned and headed back
Ohohoh

Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life

Now good times come and good times go
I only wish the good times would last a little longer
I'm thinkin' about the good times we had and why they had to end
Ohohoh

So I sit at the edge of my bed
I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song
Wonderin' bout what you're doing now and when you're coming back
Ohohoh

Life goes by so fast
You only wanna do what you think is right
Close your eyes and it's past
Story of my life

Story of my life (life goes by so fast)
