Watching my window I was led like a child As the roadway lamplights Misguided my mind through the night A shadow of limits We were racing the rain My hands held the wheel My eyes tried to hold their place
There must have been a time When I thought that you were watching It had to be when my senses lost control I thought I'd slipped away I thought I could still feel us moving It must have been a cloud No bigger than a man's hand
Every reason I risk my life To come back to you Is locked behind your door You're my immunity Outside I watched you burn Heavy hearts were bleeding A cry for help, a familiar voice My melting hands streaked the glass
As I walked away I wondered what had really happened Had I run out of time Did I push myself too far As my last step fell I felt my hands upon the wheel Had I come back to life Or did I ever leave at all
In higher lives We seem to be Always a moment too late We're past the time When we looked on Now we're the ones who help to set the sun
This time for real I locked the door behind me My mind was still a wreck From what I saw For when my hands are still I'll recognize the message Never again will my senses lose control
In higher lives We seem to be Always a moment too late We're past the time When we looked on Now we're the ones who help to set the sun
