you're like the pull of the tides
you've got the force of the sea
and i thought i could swim
but i'm drowning
and i forget
the person i call 'me'
you're like the sun on my back
you've got a beautiful light
and i can stay in the shade
or i can burn away
i forget
which one is right
maybe time will tell me
but i think i left a clock back home
and if i were to start leaving
i would loose everything i know
everything would go
it's like you see in black and white
you've missed all the colors i can be
like the pink in the sky
and the fading night
and the nothing that floats through all we breathe
maybe i'm just asking for too much
and you are as good as it gets
so i will smile through all my time with you
and push past how i feel in the end
maybe time will tell me
but i think i left a clock back home
and if i were to start leaving
i would loose everything i know
everything would go
and every cry i've tried to make ends
with a tear-drawn wave
how can i?
how could i?
i know the door only needs one push
to leave you in my past for good
but
how can i?
how can i?
maybe time will tell me
but i know i left that clock back home
and i should really start leaving
so i'll wave goodbye to everything i know
i'll let everything go
