when i took a walk through town

all i could see was dust

kicking up and all around 

making a scene 

it was the first time i was ever

alone

it really didn’t mean all that much to me

your back is all i see

walking through the door forever more 

it’s what i told myself to move along

i swore

 

do me a favor now

when worlds collide don’t come running back here

feel it now

running through your memories

giving your honest word 

is all i would ever need

 

and i hope you’re better now

maybe you’re trying hard

she’s lovely isn’t she

maybe you feel like you don’t have to be 

the person that you feel like with

me

they say roots before wings

haven’t you heard of it

all those stories let them flow

out of you like a river raging on the east side of your temple

let it go

 

do me a favor now

remember me as a time of day

feel it now

running through your memories

giving your honest word 

is all i would ever need

 

you and i

under unfamiliar skies

you and i 

under unfamiliar skies

 

and i’ll just walk away

before the light of day

comes to a close

and i try to stay

 

and i’ll just walk away

before the light of day 

comes to a close

 

you and i

under unfamiliar skies

you and i 

under unfamiliar skies

 

and i’ll just walk away

before the light of day

comes to a close

and i try to stay

 

and i’ll just walk away

before the light of day 

comes to a close

 

you and i

under unfamiliar skies
