And it takes me away
As if it's only in my mind
Same old set of feeling happen faster still

My friend, I hardly knew you though I tried so long ago
I've been thinking it over, or at least I'm trying to
Remembering that Saturday when we wrecked our shoes
We were covered in love, or maybe the lack thereof
I wish my memory would serve me but it's more like mythology
Ancient history of stories that I made up, up

Listen to me when I tell you
You've got no control
It's nothing to feel sad about
It takes the best of all of us

And it takes me away
As if it's only in my mind
Same old set of feeling happen faster still

In the year I nearly lost you, I could always see my breath
The whole lake's frozen over (the lake has frozen over)
Remembering that night when the police phoned my house
We're in trouble now, but maybe we won't get caught

Listen to me when I tell you
You've got no control
It's nothing to feel sad about
It takes the best of all of us
And it takes me away
As if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feelings happen faster still
And it takes me away
As if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feelings happen faster still

Well we thought we knew it all, like we had it in our hands
But we are younger than that now even when ten years have passed
As I look into your eyes, I don't know you any better
Are we covered in love? Covered in love

And It takes me away
As if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feeling happen faster still
And oh it takes me away
As if it's only in my mind
The same old set of feeling happen faster still, faster still

We're covered in love (are we covered in love?)
In our love (are we covered in love, are we covered?)
It's getting faster everyday
It's growing faster still
