[Verse 1]
Maybe if I search my mind a little
I'd come across the reason why you're gone
Maybe if I searched a little while
And if I try to reconcile a little
Then maybe I will know for how long
This time

[Pre-Hook]
Well here we are in separate rooms
I can hear you sighing
Saying "No way out," or so it seems
Dry our tears, we're flying straight on through that window

[Hook]
Fast changes arriving
Slow changes are moving out
Here we are

[Verse 2]
Now maybe if I took the time a little
Then maybe I would know for how long
This time
