They saw the scattering of stars, and whispered at them given names.

I read a book when I was young, that said even stars they go away.

But apparently they are so far, and a trail of light doesn't need a name.

So now we look up in the sky just trails of light and given names.

They both set out for Carolina, one day on a train

To watch the people hurry by and get out of the rain

And I say yeah, oh to get out of the rain

They didn’t know why they had done it, only that they had

Circumstances terrified them, but it wasn’t bad

And I say yeah, but it wasn’t bad

Oh just don’t slow down

When your feet are underwater

And your head is hardly moving in the drink

GIVE ME YOUR HAND WHILE WERE WALKING

PAST THE ROCKS BEYOND THE SHORE

GIVE ME YOUR EYES WHILE WERE TALKING

CAUSE ALL I WANT

IS A LITTLE MORE

Oh the train tracks they lie, side by side, from morning til night

Why do you hold onto things when they don’t go quite right

We may win and we may lose,

And we all get the choice to choose once

But the winnings only won by the one’s who’ve won and

We have never won once, and that’s not fun

By the time you read this note, I will be fast upon a boat

May be a ship but they don’t say, I go about things the wrong way

And you will walk upon the shore, and you will only ask for more

But you can’t reap what I don’t sow, so upon that ship i go

Well you once told me you were a magician

And i asked you to show me some proof

You said close my eyes and just listen to the lies

If i listened close enough i’d find the truth

Well you once told me you were a magician

And i asked you to show me some proof

You said close my eyes and just listen to the lies

If i listened close enough i’d find the truth

It all begins with an idea.
