There is a swelling storm And I'm caught up in the middle of it all
And it takes control of the person that I thought I was The boy I used to know
But there is a light in the dark And I feel its warmth
In my hands, in my heart But why can't I hold on?
* It comes and goes in waves It always does, always does
We watch as our young hearts fade Into the flood, into the flood
** And the freedom of falling The feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers I'm trying hard to let go
It comes and goes in waves It comes and goes in waves And carries us away
Through the wind Down to the place we used to lay when we were kids
Memories of a stolen place Caught in the silence, an echo lost in space
( * , ** )
I've watched my wild youth Disappear in front of my eyes
Moments of magic and wonder It seems so hard to find
Is it ever coming back again? Is it ever coming back again?
Take me back to the feeling when Everything was left to find
