[Verse 1: Mike Mills]
Twenty-thousand miles to an oasis
Twenty-thousand years will I burn
Twenty-thousand chances I've wasted
Waiting for the moment to turn

[Chorus: Mike Mills]
I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

[Verse 2: Mike Mills]
Walking through the woods, I have faced it
Looking for something to learn
Thirty-thousand thoughts have been wasted
Never in my time to return

[Chorus: Mike Mills]
I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

[Bridge: Mike Mills]
All my life
Waiting to find

[Verse 3: Mike Mills]
Forty-thousand stars in the evening
Look at them fall from the sky
Forty-thousand reasons for living
Forty-thousand tears in your eyes

[Chorus: Mike Mills]
I would give my life to find it
I would give it all
Catch me if I fall

[Outro: Mike Mills]
Catch me if I fall
Catch me if I fall
Catch me if I fall, catch me if I fall
(Catch me if I fall)
Catch me if I fall, catch me if I fall
Catch me if I fall, catch me if I fall

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
