How we get lost
|
Going from here to there
|
Counting numbers in the air
|
Cheekbone to a cool stone wall
|
|
See the fireflies in this mason jar
|
Light my smile like a faded scar
|
We used to wonder who we are
|
These days we don't care
|
|
How we get lost, how we get lost
|
Going here to there
|
How we get lost, how we get lost
|
Counting numbers in the air
|
|
And at times
|
It seems like we've been here
|
Before but can't recall
|
The old familiar signs have disappeared
|
|
As in time we conjure from thin air
|
Maps we pray will carry us
|
Far away from fear
|
To some grace we engineer
|
|
How we get lost, how we get lost
|
Going here to there
|
How we get lost, how we get lost
|
Counting numbers in the air
|
Counting numbers in the air
|
|
Our life's a song like an old 45
|
Start to skip in the groove just to stay alive
|
But when you close your eyes what do you see?
|
|
Do stars align to light the way?
|
As the twilight fades to gray
|
Will you rise and shine away
|
Or will you simply one day disappear?
|
Or will you simply one day disappear?
|
|
How we get lost, how we get lost
|
Going here to there
|
How we get lost, how we get lost
|
Counting numbers in the air
|
I'm counting numbers in the air
|
|
We get lost, we get lost
|
Going here to there
|
We get lost, we get lost
|
Counting numbers in the air
|
