lyrics

The sun behind the trees
Cast a shadow it’s taken me
And I run to the street
Like the tide to the sea
And I can feel you looking at me
And I can see you falling gently

And I’ll cling to the past
Cause it looks as though it’s all I have
With your heart in a glass
Growing old to fast

I said the sky is falling
But I missed the acorns at my feet
And I screamed the wolves are calling
All along it was just me

Shut it down is what they told me
Cause the light you see it cannot last
In the dark you’ll never keep me
A beating heart so bright it lights my path
