[Verse 1]
Finding our way home
Is the bird of paradise
And once the truth is known
The fables seem so nice
[Chorus]
It’s how it was
And it will always be
Empty for the loss
But so full of memories that we’ll take away
[Verse 2]
Another lost for words
Well before you spoke
I can think of nothing worse
Then a ‘nice to meet you’ joke
[Chorus]
It’s how it was
And how it will always be
That part of you
Just isn’t a part for me that I’d like to play
And the bird still flies away
[Verse 3]
All that’s left undone
By the choices that you’ve made
Boil it down to one
Well I guess you should have stayed
[Chorus]
That’s how it was
And how it will always be
Cause day lights in you
Oh and it lighted me
Oh will you ever return?
[Post-Chorus]
Lost over the ocean
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
We’re waiting it open
Oh-oh
[Part 2]
Just like they left you for dead
Below no one answers
Oh this isn’t a demon
But you’ll never recover from never
Oh-oh, I said it
Ooh, I wanna know how it feels
To float and to drift away
Ooh, but I’m still a drift away
Because you’ll never recover from never
Oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh
We get thrown raw deals
Below no one answers
I thought it was my only way
So now you’ll be running forever
