time flies (faster)

do you remember, when we were young?
and car rides used to take so long?

going to changi airport felt like an hour...
and the discovery centre felt like miles away.
but now it's like 30 mins.

i highly doubt the speed limits have increased since then...
so probably, when we were young, we paid attention to everything.
we were curious and inquisitive.
we experienced every single moment of that car ride.

but now that we are older.
we've experienced many more things since then.
and we filter out the unimportant moments of our lives.
journeys seem much faster now because we only really do pay attention to the start and the endpoint.

at least that is my theory.
so sometimes i do wish i were a small boy again.

how times flies (even faster now).

we were sitting, we were sitting in the strawberry swing
every moment was so precious
we were sitting, we were talking in the strawberry swing
everybody was for fighting
wouldn't wanna' waste a thing


cold, cold water, bring me round
now my feet won't touch the ground
cold, cold water, what you say?
it's such, it's such a perfect day
it's such a perfect day


i remember, we were walking to strawberry swing
i can't wait until the morning
wouldn't wanna' change a thing


people moving, all the time
inside a perfectly straight line
don't you wanna, scurve away?
and it's such, it's such a perfect day
it's such a perfect day


now the sky could be blue, i don't mind
without you it's a waste of time
could be blue, could be gray
without you i'm just miles away
