One of Us Lyrics

I can see the light inside your eyes

I can see the windows close behind you

I can feel the wind race through your hair beneath the trees

When we're inside I feel a breeze

I can hear the songs flow from your breath

I can hear the shaking of your head before you do it

I can feel your heart beat far away when all you wanted was to stay

But I can't turn back time

Or change what I've been through

And I can't save you from your childhood

Like I want to

And we can't relive these first years

When we go grey

And one day I know

One of us will have to go away

I can smell my sweat through your perfume

I could smell your wet hair every Sunday afternoon

You can break down walls that have stood for many moons

You are my truth

I can feel your body every morning

I take every argument we don't have as a warning

I'll be up and down with you

Until we walk a flat road into forming

But I can't turn back time

Or change what I've been through

And I can't save you from your childhood

Like I want to

And we can't relive these first years

When we go grey

And one day I know

One of us will have to go away

But I can't turn back time

Or change what I've been through

And I can't save you from your childhood

Like I want to

And we can't relive these first years

When we go grey

And one day I know

One of us will have to stay
