lyrics

Made the rounds, steady pressin' for a way out
Waves around, sailin' through em'
I'm in the wake now
And the strangest thing, you come you go
You strange now
And I'd play it all again, yeah
But they say them days are played out

Missing the morning sun
Won't wake up the moon at once
And longing for yesterday
Gon' make this a long run

Always runnin' through time
I never slept in the summer shade
Always lookin' so high
I never fell for a simple way

Prefacing, push through them pages to better things
And everything ain't night and day
Let it slip away
In these stranger times, summer morn' quickly turns to winter night
Satisfied by the candlelight
Caffeine daydreams gon' treat me right

Missing the morning sun
Won't wake up the moon at once
And longing for yesterday
Gon' make this a long run

Always runnin' through time
I never slept in the summer shade
Always lookin' so high
I never fell for a simple way

Always runnin' through time
I never slept in the summer shade
Always lookin' so high
I never fell for a simple way
