lyrics

The longer that I think about it
The further that I go without it
Suddenly I start to doubt it
Then I press rewind

The bird flies high and circles round
Casts its gaze upon the ground
Knowing no significance
Until the perfect time

Run until the race is done
There will always be the sun
To show you that nobody won
With unrelenting shine

We must not linger in the past
We’re only time that couldn’t last
I know not where I’m destined for
Set the mast we’re leaving shore

We must not linger in the past
We are only time and then it stops
So have a laugh and break the cast
Start anew your ships caught in the rocks

Sailing in the ocean
Drifting through the time
Laughing and forgetting
All the things we left behind

We must not let our course rely
On the mercy of the wind
The time has come to learn the ways
Of the waters that we’re in

I never learned to read the maps
Or how to tell the tide
Years of pointless wandering
Its time to step aside

Our journey will be trying
As we travel far and wide
Fear that we’d be lost without out you
Need you as our guide

We must not linger in the past
We are only time and then it stops
So have a laugh and break the cast
Start anew your ships caught in the rocks
