Never knew the birds could fly this low
guess I've never been up this early
you know I'd sleep if I could
but when I do I only dream of fleeing war torn
countries
oh it's the same road takes me to you
takes me away
oh and takes me back oh and takes me back to you

remembering a carnival in the rain
the fireworks poured down anyway
the taste of sorrow on my tongue
so much sulpher so much mud in these lungs

Chorus:
Oh it's the same road takes me to you
takes me away
oh and takes me back, takes me back to you
everything familiar, everything new

The water lay like a second sky
we had only one choice left after such a long climb
it was as if we'd always been there
living on wild fruit and mountain air
Oh, and if “love is the distance between you and what you 
love” *
Then look how far look how far I'll go

Chorus:
