| Somewhere, high up in the air there
|
| I had long forgotten, I belong to you
|
| Some unconscious stream of twisted logic
|
| Caught me in its whirlwind, left me black and blue
|
| I was senseless, battered and defenseless
|
| Rain became relentless, leaving barren skies
|
| I was broken, all I left unspoken
|
| Left me torn wide open, barely still alive
|
| Found your letter, sealed away in storage
|
| Under my pretenses, buried out of view
|
| I recalled it, hidden in a notebook
|
| Tattered, ruffled pages, old but good as new
|
| I was listless, how could I have missed this?
|
| If you are the groundswell, I’m tossed in your tide
|
| I was certain if I’d seen it comin'
|
| I’d have started runnin' back at the starting line
|
| Well I faltered, left you at the altar
|
| Offering my apologies and my gratitude
|
| Now there’s a sinking feeling in my chest
|
| You’re gonna love me less when I return to you
|
| But you were never one to keep a record
|
| One to hold against me all I failed to prove
|
| I’ve been tethered, floating like a feather
|
| Anxious in my roaming, stranded on the move |
