lyrics

By Amy Dougherty and Brady Newbill

Open my eyes and take me away
The answer was always a smile in the rain
Time lifted a rose and we slipped underneath
A road off the map to a home out of reach
We got lost apart, together so free
Nowhere to stop but our minds

After the turquoise had faded to grey
You would come home and have nothing to say
A book on the shelf, a life lesson learned
The moments I'll keep, the rest of it burned
We got off the trail, somewhere far away
Aimlessly drifting in time

I stayed inside wondering why
The memories fade and everything dies
Gather what's left of you, set down your heart
I'll be right next to you, old from the start
Do it all right and you're never the same
Through opening doorways we'll find
A new place to call home

Born of the sunlight and gone with the rain
Nightfall of answers where questions remain
Laughing and crying we roll down a hill
Counting the dangers of life standing still
