Hide And Seek Lyrics

I count to ten, like I always do

Close my eyes, but I'm still watching you

You're hiding somewhere difficult too

But every time I get close, you're gone again

Footsteps echo through my mind

I think I hear you just behind

But every turn leads to another game

And I'm left searching, all over to find you

We're playing hide and seek in the dark

I'm chasing shadows, chasing sparks

I thought I'd found you, but you slip away

And the game begins again today

I just want to find where you are

But you keep hiding, leaving scars

I follow the clues, but they lead nowhere

A voice whispers, "You're almost there

But the closer I get, the more you hide

You're the part of me I can't find

I see your shape behind the door

But when I reach, it's just the floor

Every time I think I win

You find another place to begin

We're playing hide and seek in the dark

I'm chasing shadows, chasing sparks

I thought I'd found you, but you slip away

And the game begins again today

I just want to find where you are

But you keep hiding, leaving scars

What happens when the seeker's tired

When the rules are broken, and I'm uninspired

But then I hear a voice inside

You'll find me when you're ready to try

We're playing hide and seek in the dark

But now I know the game's my art

Each round brings me closer still

Even when you bend my will

I'll keep looking for where you are

Even if you keep hiding afar

I count to ten, and here we go

But this time, I'll take it slow

I'm not afraid to seek or find

Because the one I'm chasing is still inside
