Lyrics
Chances go Pulled like waves Adjust your eyes, follow the lights But the colors have changed Moving slow Voices fade You cross the line and change your mind From the choices you've made On the road it seems Dust and wind have buried your dreams Until they Fall apart Just like me And I want to know What it feels Rolling like A strange love A ship on the ocean, sails reaching high thru the air When will the clouds in the sky disappear When will the tears that fill your eyes roll away We've got to promise to stay alive and make it there We can make it there (repeat 2x) Plow blade slides Thru the rain The seeds have died, you stand alone And the fields are left the same Fooled in time Trust in fate Pulled aside and you wait in line But they never did call your name On the road it seems Dust and wind have buried our dreams Until they fall apart Just like me And I want to know What it feels Rolling like A strange love A child by the ocean, Voices that sing thru the air When will the clouds in the sky disappear When will the tears that fill your eyes roll away We've got to promise to stay alive and make it there We can make it there (repeat 3x)
