lyrics

Sad eyes looking out the window in vain
You love to ride on the bullet train to some place you’ve never been
That bullet breathes life heavy into your ear from miles away
But you think you hear the sound of a passing year
So long, so fast
I followed your tracks
I found you at last
So long
You look through the eyes in the back of your head
But what you don’t see, you believe instead
Leave truth hanging on a thread
Some people are blind, some people are seen
But most of us fall somewhere in between, jumping a wider stream
Elevator going up into eternity
And I’m looking at the people not looking at me
And now I’m 29 stories higher than I should be
And I’m counting the minutes ’til they set you free
From the blink of an eye to the squeeze of a hand
I start to believe what I don’t understand
I’m still looking at the man I love
