Lyrics:

Allie woke up, 8 a.m., graduation day
Got into a car, crashed along the way
We arrived late to the wake, stole the urn while they looked away
And drove to the beach 'cause I knew you'd want it that way

And you were standing on the hood of the car
Singin' out loud when the sun came up

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would
And that R.E.M. song was playin' in my mind
And three and a half minutes felt like a lifetime
Felt like a lifetime

And you move like water, yeah, I could drown in you
And I fell so deep once, yeah, 'til you pulled me through, oh
You would tell me, 'No one is allowed to be so proud
They never reach out when they're giving up'

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would
And that R.E.M. song was playin' in my mind
And three and a half minutes felt like a lifetime
Felt like a lifetime

Are you sitting in the lights?
Or combing your hair again and talking in rhymes?
And are you sitting in the lights?

When I got home, heard the phone, your parents had arrived
And your dad set his jaw, your ma just smiled and sighed (And you move like water)
But they left soon and I went to my room, played that disc that you'd given me (And you move like water)
And I shut my eyes, swear I could hear the sea

When we were standing on the hood of your car
Singin' out loud when the sun came up

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good
And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would
And that R.E.M. song was playin' in my mind
And three and a half minutes felt like a lifetime
Three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime
