   Can we walk it side by side?

Hiding in the seams, I can't move the past

When you talk about the past

Did I let go too fast?

Was I holding on too long?

     FF
Ain't no truths from the past

As silent as the sea

A minorAm I holding on too long?

But you're right in front of me

    FF
And I'm moving on a cast
       A minorAm
Shadows on my seam
    E minorEm         G+G
I keep moving to changes, yeah
G+G
Ooh
