lyrics

She was born out west then caught a breeze
Fell in love with the boy in the east
She loves to see him when the day is done
And life moves fast when you fall in love

It took two weeks for her to move in
Before long they’re best of friends
Sometimes friends just aint enough
And life move fast when you fall in love

Life moves fast when you fall in love
Life moves fast when you fall in love
What you’ve got’s, what we dream of
Life moves fast when you fall in love

Was Christmas day and she said yes
Now she’s picking out that wedding dress
Seems like weddings they’re two for one
And life moves fast when you fall in love

Life moves fast when you fall in love
Life moves fast when you fall in love
What you’ve got’s, what we dream of
Life moves fast when you fall in love

Break Down

It takes more than tinder to start a fire
Man these flames they’re growing higher
They say there’s plenty of fish in the sea
Just one of you and one of me
So okay cupid draw back that bow
Little baby let your arrow go

Life moves fast when you fall in love
Life moves fast when you fall in love
What you’ve got’s, what we dream of
Life moves fast when you fall in love

Life moves fast when you fall in love
Life moves fast when you fall in love
What you’ve got’s, what we dream of
Life moves fast when you fall in love

about

The Spare Parts Toronto, Ontario

Toronto band The Spare Parts were originally the backing band for frontman Phillip Vonesh. Over the years the writing became more collaborative. The sincerity and emotion of Vonesh’s lyrics and vocals are the perfect contrast to guitarist Bill Dyan’s heavy hooks and classic style. The glue of the band are bassist Gavin Quinn and Drummer Alex Bullen who keep things locked down. ... more
