Song Description

Her love is wandering, he thinks he's lost. But he doesn't know that all roads lead back to her. She will be there.

Lyrics

Middle of your life
Cornered in the center
Of mice and men and money
You been around enough to know
First, Second, Third
It's a brave new world
Where forever is a gamble
And your hand's clutched to your shirt
Searching faces for instructions
They can't tell you how to go
That you'll end up where you started
You only know what you know
You only know what you know


I'd let it go if it were mine to give
If that's how it's supposed to be
But you left your shadow when you ran
And it's fallin' on me
If you say you're lost
I'll say I never found
That anchor in deep water
But no one here dragged you down
And I know
That you know
Nothing will shadow you
If you go
The thing you think you're running from
Won't chase you down
But tread lightly
I've got my ear to the ground


I'm not brave
Cuz I'm not scared
I'm not waiting
I'm not leaving
I'm only standing guard
In this not-forsaken corner
Of long lost and found
Of long lost and found


And I'm up against a rock and a sad place
And around every echo
I can still see your face
You'll never lose me
Even if you wanted to
Cuz there's some kind of forever
In the sum of me and you
I read the songbook
I know the ending
It's never too late for a girl to dream
I know you stumble through what should have been
But I'll wait, for you, to find home, again


And so I'm humming as I stand here
Trying not to lose my place
Searching faces for instructions
But they all look the same
Quiet smiles of sympathy
Something lost, but not resolved
No one understands
I'm the last verse of your song.
They don't know
That you don't know
The equator circles back
Any way you go
With a whole sad world between us
I only know what I know
I only know what I know


I'm not brave
Cuz I'm not scared
I'm not waiting
I'm not leaving
I'm only standing guard
In this not-forsaken corner
Of long lost and found
Of long lost and found
Of not lost but........
