Have you ever wondered what it would be like To bury your life and start over again? Posting our keys through the narrow letterbox The night is young but we're getting older, as night moves fast The cat is sleeping unaware in the back of the car My baby believes we're right To leave it all behind But saying goodbye Proves harder every time All we packed were prayers for the saviour of our loved ones We never figured we'd need much more The ivy climbs and holds on for dear life Our senses fry as the heat of the moment Blurs our eyes and sounds unclear As the smell of home recedes Into the unknown we disappear I look at your anxious smile And kiss you on the lips As we drive into the mist 'Cause nothing now can change The way we feel as the moon's off guard For every doubt in our way There beats an optimist's heart Dreams are never content in the dark Let's begin our escape Before the moon suspects something Curiosity spoke wholeheartedly "This is meant to be Trust my eyes" We felt the honesty of the words it speaks We're so thoughtlessly giving into your lies No sooner we are miles away, we carry the weight As our heavy hearts feel sick And we heard the drunks in the churchyard sing a welcome home song But nothing now can change The way we feel as the moon's off guard For every doubt in our way There beats an optimist's heart Dreams are never content in the dark Let's begin our escape Before the moon suspects something
