lyrics

Look at the house where we can mend
Now and then, and
We could wait till, the day stands still
And our love will
Walk to the beat of the sun

The past is where I'm from
But that's long gone
Over and done, hun
The man you once knew, made a breakthrough
A whole new world view
Fly to the sound of the gun

I see right through (all our days have passed)
Can you see me too (who's to say it lasts)
I see right through (let's forget the past)
Can you see me too (may this be our last)
I see right through (won't you follow through)
Won't you follow through

And what I have found (made a breakthrough)
Safe and sound (well in your eyes)
Keeps me grounded (a whole new world cries)
My thoughts are clouded (might as well die)
And what I have found (made a breakthrough)
Safe and sound (well in your eyes)
Keeps me grounded (a whole new world cries)
My thoughts are

Drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
