A hundred mountains from the road
Smile along a stretch of sky
With a lullaby in my head
Breathing calmly walked I
Catch a tale of foretold dreams
Serenity right by my side
But I am not quite what I seem
A toppled glass of broken pride
A product of that childish pantry play
I'll see the light of day
Whether you were with me or you turned around and missed me
I was riding at the stern
Asked an honest question try to answer through the tension
With so much left to learn
All you wanted from me was a shoulder when you're weak
All I wanted from you was your time
Just a little of your precious time
♪
Two eyes burning through the mist
Fear makes me lose my stride
The answer crushes like a fist
Why show what I can hide?
Two lovers lost at sea
Rise and fall with every wave
Try to find what's meant to be
With nothing left to crave
Then open up the door to change the scene
And be what we can be
Whether you were with me or you turned around and missed me
I was riding at the stern
Asked an honest question try to answer through the tension
With so much left to learn
All you wanted from me was a shoulder when you're weak
All I wanted from you was your time
Just a little of your precious time
♪
A state of open mindedness
To cauterize a wound that cuts too deep
A sling to hold my soul up endlessly
To keep my head above so I can breathe
Keep me from crying in my sleep
Whether you were with me or you turned around and missed me
I was riding at the stern
Asked an honest question try to answer through the tension
With so much left to learn
All you wanted from me was a shoulder when you're weak
All I wanted from you was your time
Just a little of your precious time
Just a little of your precious time
