So there it is, you said it
And I won't forget it
We didn’t need the candles
And I didn’t need the lies

Cuz if you leave I'm certain
It will close the curtain
There’s no turning back now
There’s no compromise

The bridge is erased from the skyline
no light in the city
it's no longer living
Will you erase me once your plane arrives
I can’t decide if it’s worth all my pride
How can I know?

What if I ran to the unknown
To prove I could find you
Search every town, every street
every avenue
Call out your name to the sun 'til you hear me

But I’m in the real world
I can’t chase a young girl
We got our whole lives ahead of ourselves

These imaginary strings
they Tie me to dreams
those that aren’t mine; don’t belong to me

The bridge is erased from the skyline
There's light in the city
The wheels touch, and I’m landing
Will I find you when my plane arrives
I can’t decide which direction to go
How can I know?

What if I ran to the unknown
To prove I could find you
Search every town, every street
every avenue
Call out your name
to the sun 'til you hear me
What if I ran to the sunrise
To the stars in the night sky
Search every cloud, every moon
every satellite
Call out your name
to the sun 'til you hear me

If I show up unannounced
What would you say?
Would you take our last night
And hold it against me?
For once in your life
Could you feel surprised?
Would you let me take your hand
And begin again?
A good friend of mine got an opportunity to go to school in Germany for a year to study. And I got myself to thinking if I was in a situation where I was dating a girl who was about to move far distance, would I let it go, or go for it.
