One of Us

I can see the light inside your eyes
I can see the windows close behind you
I can feel the wind race through your hair beneath the trees
When we're inside I feel a breeze

I can hear the songs flow from your breath
I can hear the shaking of your head before you do it
I can feel your heart beat far away when all you wanted was to stay

But I can't turn back time
Or change what I've been through
And I can't save you from your childhood
Like I want to
And we can't relive these first years
When we go grey
And one day I know
One of us will have to go away

I can smell my sweat through your perfume
I could smell your wet hair every Sunday afternoon
You can break down walls that have stood for many moons
You are my truth

I can feel your body every morning
I take every argument we don't have as a warning
I'll be up and down with you
Until we walk a flat road into forming

But I can't turn back time
Or change what I've been through
And I can't save you from your childhood
Like I want to
And we can't relive these first years
When we go grey
And one day I know
One of us will have to go away

But I can't turn back time
Or change what I've been through
And I can't save you from your childhood
Like I want to
And we can't relive these first years
When we go grey
And one day I know
One of us will have to stay
