lyrics

Let's go!

We're all small figures in the distance
Nothing we do or say can last
Do I take the path of least resistance?
'Cause we're all just people in the past.

Soon to be where I've never been
Wishing I had your hand to hold
To break the fall between now and then
New and old
Soon to be who I've never been
Letting go of the hand I hold
Difference between now and then
New and old

Glass memories in the mirror
Never as clear or as dear as they seem
An open sky is drawing nearer
The faster I fuel the fire with my dream

Soon to be where I've never been
Wishing I had your hand to hold
To break the fall between now and then
New and old
Soon to be who I've never been
Letting go of the hand I hold
Difference between now and then
New and old

What lies ahead behind the horizon?
Where a whisper moon sighs once in a while
An open road below, a new day rising
Writing the next beginning with every mile

Soon to be where I've never been
Wishing I had your hand to hold
To break the fall between now and then
New and old
Soon to be who I've never been
Letting go of the hand I hold
Difference between now and then
New and old

But I'll think of you every now and then...
