Jump on board
Take a leap of faith
How can we feel so close now
Yet be so far away
If I could have you just once a year
Let it be the longest stay
It's illusive as the present
I will love you either way
I will love you either way

[Chorus]
Oh my friend, don't be afraid
Of smoke and mirrors
Oh my friend, this is our day
For hope and forgiveness
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you want this as much as I do?
This could be a very long day

I wouldn't hold my breath now
Did I hear you say
Were we on the same wave lengths?
Were we under the same rain?
I'm not anticipating
What I had prayed for
I could've been more courageous
If only I had got out of my way

[Chorus]
Oh my friend, don't be afraid
Of smoke and mirrors
Oh my friend, this is our day
For hope and forgiveness
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you want this as much as I do?
This could be a very long day

[Chorus]
Oh my friend, don't be afraid
Of smoke and mirrors
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you want this as much as I do?
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you
Don't you want this as much as I do?
This could be a very long day
This could be a very long day
