Passages
[Instrumental: voice-mail]
Hey, Ian, I know you're at band practice right now, but...
(indistinguishable talking)

[Instrumental: Ian & Niki]
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh

[Verse 1: Ian]
People come and go
I thought you were different
I thought you'd be here to stay
Whatever makes you happy
And wherever you go
I thought I'd be there today

[Pre-Chorus: Ian & Niki]
But now, all I have of you
Are these words on a page

[Chorus: Ian; Ian & Niki]
And I'm going back
To a couple Decembers from now
To see how the lights surround you, oh
And you're singing at last
And I'm coming back to hear you
That's all I want to do
I'm stuck in these passages
Passages, oh
And the only way out
The only way out is now

[Verse 2: Ian; Ian & Niki]
People love and hate
But you're just indifferent
I think it hurts more that way
I'm seeing you get older
I'm wondering where will you go
I thought that we'd become a they

[Pre-Chorus: Ian & Niki]
But now, I'm one half of two
And I'm waiting in the rain

[Chorus: Ian; Ian & Niki; (Niki)]
And I'm going back (and I'm going back to you)
To a couple Decembers from now
To see how the lights surround you (I'm going back to you) oh
And you're singing at last
And I'm coming back to hear you
That's all I want to do

[Bridge: Ian & Niki]
Woah oh, woah oh
Woah oh, woah oh
And I'm broken glass
I'm looking through all these frames
No we'll never be the same
The same
The same
And I'm finding that
You're ready for all this change
I'll tell myself I'm okay
Okay
Okay
[Outro: Ian]
The sound of the rain
Tip tapping on the inside of my heart
When you're away
Nothing to say

The sound of the way
I tell myself I'll love you every day
But from now on
I'll keep it in a different place
