Where We Left Off

  • Well if we had the words in times like these
    We wouldn't have to stare
    We'd both know what to say
    And how to pray the things to do to save the day
    Some will call it sacrifice
    They'll look at this and never see
    The beauty or how much it means
    The blood that runs inside of me

    I know you understand
    That there's no map for this, no plan

    And the way we say goodbye
    Is not that way that anyone would do
    Like a wave out on the ocean
    I will always come right back to you
    I could blink
    Not a moment is gone
    We'll pick up where we left off

    It's like the world is draped in a camouflage
    And sometimes never what it seems
    Everyone's got different things
    They hide behind or try to be
    But the things I carry with me
    All remind me who I am
    When so much of me is not with me
    What matters most is what I leave

    Behind for you to keep
    Yeah, so smile when you think of me

    And though the way we say goodbye
    Is not that way that anyone would do
    Like a wave out on the ocean
    I will always come right back to you
    I could blink
    And not a moment is gone
    Yeah we'll pick up where we left off

    Oooh
    Oh

    Oh the way we say goodbye
    Is not the way that anyone would do
    Like a wave out on the ocean
    I will always come right back to you
    Nothing changed, nothing fades, nothing lost
    And we pick up where we left off.

    Oooh
    No
    Oh
    No
    Oooh
