I can see you laughing 
after you’re gone and I’m alone. 
laughing at the things you lost 
happy to have paid the cost. and I can see you waiting
 after years of separation. 
waiting on a platform
for a train I won’t be on. and the future is now. 
in the eyes of my mind
 I want to be there somehow
. can’t bear to leave you behind 
at the mercy of time. I can see you’re pregnant 
sucking on a tall boy and a cigarette
. oh I want to be there 
run my hands through your blonde hair. and I can see you lonely 
standing at the side of a freeway 
trying to catch a break. 
a ride that takes you all the way. and the future is now. 
in the eyes of my mind
 I want to be there somehow. 
can’t bear to leave you behind
 at the mercy of time.
