Verse:
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
Pre-Chorus:
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
Chorus:
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
Verse:
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
Pre-Chorus:
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
Chorus:
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
Pre-Chorus:
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
Chorus:
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
Outro:
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
