lyrics

I lost myself inside a fire,
I lost myself to you,

I lost thoughts as I walked,
I lost my thoughts to you,

Snow has come in a whiteout,
In a blanket on the ground,

Footsteps left by strangers,
Who must have heard the sound.


I was in a place that you cannot be,
I was in a place that you can’t get to me,
I was in a place that you cannot be,
I was in a place that you can’t get to me,


I lost myself inside a maze,
I lost myself to you,

I lost my head up in the haze,
Of a summer afternoon

I am pulled both ways,
By hands that want me for their own,

In a place where time has stopped,
But I keep running on,


And then it settles down again,
And I am free,
From this strange weather,
Inside of me,

Out in a forest of wood,
Beyond the field,
Out in a moment of sunlight,
Through the leaves,


I was in a place that you can’t be,
I was in a place that you can’t get to me,
I was in a place that I shouldn’t be,
That I shouldn’t be,
That I shouldn’t be.
