And I know These last years in my mind I've grown Sea-green glances over pale amber chances But that was years ago. Cracked jokes and smiles that night Spilled drinks under fluorescent light But that was years ago But that was years ago And I've grown... I was carving out a road again (I'll escape) To places deeper than I've ever been (I'll escape) But I'm not there yet (I'll escape) No I'm not there yet (I'll escape) If only you could see your eyes You'd know that I was never gonna make it out, Not then, that night, Not by the time that skies did slide under the hunter's knife And so we played along Like two fools with nothing left to lose See, back then belief was cheap But summer days, they fade into memory. And I know Those first weeks we'd wished that time had slowed Cool-grey glances as we shared an understanding That we'd be letting go Letting go. But from this day on there's no tomorrow Our gazes trace the waning light With a sea of limbs we grip the moments And swear that they will never die And yet, the silent promises we made ring out.
