Lyrics: Iain Archer
Music: Gary Lightbody
Only time won’t take you anywhere
It just goes through you like a ghost
And only half of this is everything
Everything you are and all you love the most
So even if I showed you everything
Every fear and every scar
And maybe try to outrun all of them
We’re still out here on foot so we won’t get far
And I don’t wanna go to you
But I need to go to you fast as I can
And I don’t wanna tell you this
But I’m tired of building everything on sand
Don’t forgive me I’ll forgive myself
And don’t believe a word I say
So when I tell you I don’t need you here
It means lots of things but also you should stay
And I don’t wanna go to you
But I need to go to you fast as I can
And I don’t wanna tell you this
But I’m tired of building everything on sand
