July For Kings "The Distance" |
Another tired monday evening This is the seventh in a row I'm awake and barely breathing In and out the great unknown The distance singing softly Calling out and keeping time from so far I smell a fire burning Something in me stirs I'm suddently nostalgic For what I'm not quite sure There's no stillness in my mind No solace in a dark With no stars I sit and watch the autumn colors change In careful patches leaves are rearranged The west wind blowing through the window screen I hope it's strong enough to carry me It's been a long long day for a sad sad song How the nights get cold When the summer moves on Am I running too fast Is my heart worn thin Am I running too fast Am I chasing the wind The world won't stop its spinning I pretend I have a choice About staying here or leaving For the laughter and the noise The distance singing softly Calling out and keeping time from so far I sit and watch the daylight dance away I wonder where it goes and where it stays The west wind blowing through the window screen I hope its strong enough to carry me It's been a long long day For a sad sad song How the nights get cold When the summer moves on Am I running too fast Is my heart worn thin Am I running too fast Am I chasing the wind I sit and watch the autumn colors change In careful patches leaves are rearranged The west wind blowing through the window screen I hope its strong enough to carry me It's been a long long day For a sad sad song How the nights get cold When the summer moves on Am I running too fast Is my heart worn thin Am I running too fast Am I chasing the wind It's been a long long day It's been a long long day It's been a long long day It's been a long long day For a sad sad song How the nights get cold When the summer moves on Am I running too fast Is my heart worn thin Am I running too fast Am I chasing the wind Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
