Say the mile we just ran stretches another 55
Say it turns out I can't go with you all the way to the other side
What'll happen when it doesn't work out the way that you had it all planned?
What'll happen if I take my own time and you still don't understand?
In the days passing through
My lover called, said I'm here to stay
Down at the shoreline,
We said we'd find another way
In the street-lamps it's appearing, sky's mercury blue
You're flying closer towards me in the heat of the moon
Got a lapse of judgement with the waves all tumbling through
With the houses and the windows in your eyes meeting me, washed anew
In the days passing through
My lover called, said I'm here to stay
Down at the shoreline,
We said we'll find another way
It's hard to say where we'll be a year from now
I know we'll try but I think we'll still fail somehow
We're just trying to be better people
I don't think I'm a better person
I don't think I'm a better person with or without you around
In the days passing through
My lover called, said I'm here to stay
Down at the shoreline,
We said we'll find another way
In the days passing through
My lover called, said I'm here to stay
Down at the shoreline
We said we'll find another way
