If I was a vehicle, I’d know -
I'd be more aware of the passing of time.
But it is not so, so I’ll be counting the hours, the minutes, the seconds…
It’s not conditional!
It’s not conditional!
If I was a vehicle, I’d know -
I’d be more aware of the passing of the time.
If I was mechanical, it’d show -
I wouldn’t recognize that look in your eyes.
It’s not conditional!
It’s not conditional!
(If I was a vehicle, I’d know -
I’d be more aware of the passing of the time.)

(Spoken)
“Now, I understand how far life can be expanded. Really what I mean is, how far one’s patience can go. And really what I mean is, what one can withstand. Isn’t it interesting? You want to do things but you never consider your true capacity. Because how could you know? You haven’t had to have it tested. Under a test, conditions are understood. Engineers use tests all the time to understand the condition of their equipment. All kinds of experiments are run to understand if something is going to be feasible in the real world or not. Elaborate testing is done. And so, testing is normal! But, we’re not a science experiment. Some may argue with me on that, but I would say we’re not. We’re living, breathing human beings.”
(Sang)
I’m dreaming big, fast like a Ferrari
With you, the center of my heartbeat
I’m dreaming big, and fast like a Ferrari
Till they call me home, till they call me home

I’m dreaming big, fast like a Ferrari
With you, the center of my heartbeat
I’m dreaming big, and fast like a Ferrari
Till they call me home, till they call me home
(This is quiet space. A time for you to think…before the pace quickens, and you don’t have the chance anymore. It’s story time.)
(Ringing, phone conversation)
(“Whatcha doing?”)
In the end, what’s it worth to you? To be here without a clue? To just be you?

It’s a new day, no matter where you are.
It’s a new way, you haven’t seen before, felt before?
It’s yours, it’s yours! It’s yours, it’s yours, it’s yours!
Yeah, it’s yours…
Going through life having a defender of your line
Casting out, catching the biggest one you can find
Gas it up, we’re going into the wilderness
It’ll all be okay, but I digress…
It’s a chorus, of less.
It’s a chorus, of less.
But I guarantee you’ll get a cash offer on your home.

At the heart of it, there's an everlasting love
That I won't ever see the end of
It's taken its hold of me
It's taken its toll on me
And time will tell
For you and me
Yeah time, time will tell
For you, and me
And I know
At the heart of there's an everlasting love
That I won't ever see the end of
