Fast Enough for You

About Fast Enough for You

"Fast Enough for You" is a 1993 song by the American band Phish. It is the second track from their 1993 concept album Rift and was released as their third promotional single by Elektra Records. The song is a slow-tempo ballad written by Phish guitarist and lead vocalist Trey Anastasio and lyricist Tom Marshall. The studio recording features a pedal steel guitar performed by Gordon Stone. In "Fast Enough for You," Tom Marshall (lyricist) supposes that we wouldn't burden each other as we do with weighty expectations and needs unmet, and things would be a whole lot happier. But that's not the way it is, and the lover to whom our narrator speaks is not content with the pace of the affair. He is thus a target for her scorn. The song was performed by Phish the most during the year of and the year following its release. It has since become a scarcity among live shows and turns up about twice a year. more »

If time were only part of the equation
Then you could draw the boundaries of our cage
You wouldn't pile another stone upon me
And I'd be happy just to watch you age

But everything is in its own dominion
And waiting in the shallows as I do
Appeases me as water slowly trickles out
Which isn't nearly fast enough for you

It isn't nearly fast enough for you
It isn't nearly fast enough for you
It's what I was afraid of
I stumble into view
But it isn't nearly fast enough for you
It isn't nearly fast enough for you

They reunited March 2009 for Phish in Hampton, a series of three consecutive concerts played in the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia, and have since resumed performing regularly. more »
