lyrics

The older we get, the shorter each year becomes
I wish I could travel back through time and meet you a little sooner
In a universe of a billion years we live like mayflies, trying to leave a mark
But the best we can do is hold our loved ones close
And take each day as they come

I can't possible describe how small I am feeling next to you
When I look into a mirror, the truth is never clearer
Looking back it's only me and you
And we're running and we go

Each night I dream of other lives I've lived
Or other possibilities
Each one a nightmare when compared to which with you I lead
Wrap me in the earth and keep me where you want me
There is nowhere I'd rather to be
The warmth of suffocation
Seems so sweet compared to the cold of isolation

I can't possible describe how small I am feeling next to you
When I look into a mirror, the truth is never clearer
Looking back it's only me and you
And we're running and we go

It feels so strange to me to have someone to hold
It feels so strange to me to have someone at all
It feels so strange to me to have someone to hold
It feels so strange to me to have someone at all

I can't possible describe how small I am feeling next to you
When I look into a mirror, the truth is never clearer
Looking back it's only me and you
And we're running and we go go go go go
We're running and we go go go go go
We're running and we go go go go go
We're running and we go go go go go
We're running and we go
