Every night I lie awake and hear the same old song
The wind is howling and my heartbeat plays the drums
But it won't climb the charts because it goes on far too long
Oh I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
When I met you we walked to the park before the spring
But the wine it had expired the night before it seemed
I never claimed the man I was was the same that I could be
Cause I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
But you weren't ready and you said that you might never be
More than a golden ship that sank beneath an unknown sea
I dreamed I'd sink beside you after ending up on the same reef
Cause I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
Oh I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
Every season at once
Old in bed and young in school
I saw myself outside of time
Sinking with you
Oh I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
As the years pass by you'll come to see that I was right
We'll be together for the lines encircled both our eyes
Time holds us prisoner in its cage for some undisclosed delight
But I saw myself I saw myself outside of time
Oh I see myself I see myself outside of time
Every season at once
Wise with age and some young fool
I saw myself outside of time
Standing with you
I saw myself outside of time
Standing with you
Every night I lie awake and hear the same old song
The wind is howling and my heartbeat plays the drums
I don't know where you are but we won't have to wait very long
