Footsteps in the Dark

I can see it in your eyes
I'm not getting through to you
You read between the lines
But the words on the page are already true
I've tried a thousand times
There's nothing else that I can do
I've tried a thousand times
But there's no getting through to you

Can you tell me you don't understand
Why I feel the way, that I have to

We're chasing the past by candlelight
Holding onto moments that we'll never find
Waving matches in the wind just to catch a spark
Cause we'll do anything to see our footsteps in the dark

Can you help me understand
Why you lie the way you do
See I don't give a damn
I just want to hear the truth

Can you tell me you don't understand
Why I feel the way, that I have to
Can you tell me you don't feel it too
Ooh oh oh, ooh oh oh

We're chasing the past by candlelight
Holding onto moments that we'll never find
Waving matches in the wind just to catch a spark
Cause we'll do anything to see our footsteps in the dark

We're tracing our path by holding tight
Reaching out for branches that we've left behind
Waving matches in the wind just to catch a spark
Cause we'll do anything to see our footsteps in the dark

I can see you in a light that's blinding
In the corners where you think you're hiding
Looking for something that doesn't need finding
Cause you're just too busy rewinding

We're chasing the past by candlelight
Holding onto moments that we'll never find
Waving matches in the wind just to catch a spark
Cause we'll do anything to see our footsteps in the dark

We're tracing our path by holding tight
Reaching out for branches that we've left behind
Waving matches in the wind just to catch a spark
Cause we'll do anything to see our footsteps in the dark
