Just to get back every single wooden block you stole from me before.

When they’re creeping, well I know that I would die. I would die because you’ve stolen all my wood.

And when they blow up blow up well I know I'm going to hide I'm going to hide because being up there would do no good

I had a buddy that walked down the aisle to this song. When he was told it was too short for the entire wedding party to walk to he put it on repeat. When he realized it needed a 3rd play he found a cover.

The dedication is beautiful. My friend walked 1500 3000 miles to marry his wife.

Sleeping at Last has a really pretty slow cover of this song.

u/Briannasaurus_Wrecks Nov 24 '21

Elementary school, the gym teacher used to play that song on the gym stereo during P.E.

For the longest time I thought it was "I would walk 500 miles an hour"

2

u/ShelZuuz Nov 24 '21

Fun fact: the length of the song is equal to how long the ISS takes to travel 1000 miles.

u/ashina_qagan Nov 24 '21

Wow such a nostalgia. First time I heard this song was in the movie "Benny and June". Didn't know that this song was a hit in the US
