Love the Bomb - Looking Down Lyrics

Every summer we would wander to the edge of town
To see if we could check the pulse of the heartland
Every evening was a reason not to settle down
And the nights would leave us holding out for a helping hand

I remember how we said our lives'd never change
Every friendship comes with those carefree promises
Ten years past, and now it hits me like a hurricane
When I reach on back - and all I've got is bitterness

Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
'Cause it hardly feels like ours before it's gone away

In the autumn we'd get caught up in the same routine
Slowly dying, lord it never looked so beautiful
Keeping busy, it was easy losing track of things
And the more I tried to fight it then the harder I would lose control, it got me

Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
'Cause it hardly feels like ours before it's gone away

Used to think that I could blink and I would skip ahead
Save some time; maybe take a couple back roads
But you can't expect to make it to the bitter end
If there's no one there to help you bear those heavy loads

Dead of winter and I'm sitting by the fireplace
My wits are reaching their end and I'm worn out
But I can feel the future heal me with her warm embrace
Saying spring is coming just around the corner now

Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
'Cause it hardly feels like ours before it's gone away
Where does the time go

Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down on a bright sunny day
Looking down, looking down
Looking down on a bright sunny day
Bright sunny day, bright sunny day

Take a good look now
Take a good look now
Take a good look now
Take a good look now
