The past, it sheds
For the road ahead
Where secrets live
To the aches of the helpless
As they brace the ship
From the swells of regret
Storm weathered eyes
Beg not to reflect
On the warmth of nature's chill
On the moments they laid still
On the stories that they told
On sun swept highways they had lived
In the ordinary days
Where they woke in an embrace
And shared plans of distant futures
With kisses on the face
On foolish mistakes
Though doubts may stay
The love at heart
Is always the same
In the shadow of change
In an old battered suitcase
You find the same pain
That brought you to her in the first place
In the warmth of nature's chill
In the moments you laid still
In the stories that you told
On sun swept highways you had lived
In the ordinary days
Where you woke in an embrace
And shared plans of distant futures
With kisses on the face
All you can do is look on ahead
All you can do is look on ahead
All you can do is look on ahead
All you can do is look on ahead
The warmth of nature's chill
The moments I laid still
The stories that we told
On sun swept highways we had lived
The ordinary days
Where I woke in an embrace
And shared plans of distant futures
With kisses on the face
