Breathless

Breathless, your hands are tired
Sleepless, the battle wages higher
"All aboard!" you hear the captain say
Take what's yours, only what you can carry in your arms

Before I met you, my life was a series of chances
Before I met you, my mind, it was racing all of the time
Bye, bye, bye, bye [to illusions I behold]
Bye, bye, bye, bye

Dodging arrows, the ones that strike you down
They hit the walls behind us without a sound
Elevate yourself to the higher plane
And don't look down you will only scare yourself

Before I met you, my life was a series of chances
Before I met you, my mind, it was racing all of the time
Bye, bye, bye, bye [to illusions I behold]
Bye, bye, bye, bye

Lay down on a sandy beach
It's a bad world, no place for us to be
So hold the ones you love dear and closest to your heart
Tell them how you feel they might not know it 'cause you never show them

Before I met you, my life was a series of chances
Before I met you, my mind, it was racing all of the time
Bye, bye, bye, bye...
Bye, bye, bye, bye
