Verse 1 I was just sitting there and staring at the door, Although it's been said one hundred times or maybe more, You came to me like a bolt out of the blue And blue's the operative word. Verse 2 Did you really think you'd been gone for far too long? Did you really think I would be waiting? Like Penelope in Homer's Odyssey Did you really think At all? Chorus 1 Don't you remember when We talked till nothing else made sense? But we both saw the cards laid on the table. Then coming through the bedroom wall The sounds of Dylan seemed to call us with a most prophetic verse That neither one could say with words, "You go your way and I'll go mine" . Verse 3 Well it seems to me your selective memory Has filtered our story like a miner That's sifting debris for the glittering specks of gold Is that how it told? Chorus 2 But don't you remember when We closed our eyes and counted ten? 'Cause neither one could say just what was needed. Everything was different then, Silence reigned until the strains of Dylan came through speaking like a Fable It was all we heard, "You go your way and I'll go mine".

On our way 03:34
On our way It's all I can take And it feels like I've been waiting all my life; A mistake, 'cause here comes more. Now we're on our way, but it seems we're trapped behind a barricade, a delay or fifty more. Half of the time it feels just like your mind's not really there when you're here. Most of the time, well, I don't really mind. Some of the time I wouldn't really mind someone to speak up for me. Most of the time, like I say, never mind, 'cause it's all right but then again... Chorus Never mind the past now we've an urgent boat to catch. I'll tag along then if our ship does sail. What's with all the fuss, now are we ever going anywhere? So far drifting's only got me near. Time for a change After 13 years your overnight success, We are blessed. Are we on our way? Then we come to a stop! But momentum's shifted, this could be it again. Have I said “Are we on our way”? Half of the time when you're here I'm not there so we're not really going anywhere. Some of the time I guess that I don't mind. Do you recall the time – was it my mind – when we thought this was everything? When was that time? Like I said, never mind, 'cause it's all right and then again Chorus Outro So far drifting's only got me near x3 So far drifting's only got me here.

So far 03:37
Verse 1 So far away In space and time. How can this place still exist Outside my mind? Verse 2 Memory Lane Is on Street View; I walked the streets where we once lived Just me and you. Chorus 1 So far, light years away from here. So far, that's just the way it seems. Away, back in the days we've been So far, so far so good. Yesterday trapped in another time. Always lingers in my mind. Verse 3 Looks like our old place Still takes up space. Though I still recall watching it fall All around us. Verse 4 Now that we're no more, It's hard to be sure All of this existed, not just the mist of A memory Chorus 2 So far, light years away from here. So far, that's just the way it is. And way back in the days we've seen So far, so far that's all there is. Locked away inside another time Somewhere near the back of my mind.

Soundtracks of our lives Verse 1 Sometime back in '92, That's how I remember you, You were in a band And I guess I was your fan. Endless days imprinted on my life. Verse 2 We'd go to The Union, Visions, dreams, illusions then, Seeing those bands And dreaming up plans, Compiling the soundtracks of our lives. Chorus 1 Play, how they'd play Till our minds would drift away. Those were the days we heard the music say So far away in time This will be yesterday But while we're here, we'll let the music play. Bridge Ooh, well I remember then Though it's been so long. Ooh, still feels like yesterday, Soaked in rays of what we've known And it went away Verse 3 They closed it down some years ago; Lack of funds or so it goes, When I look back I still hear those tracks. Sounds that still would last forever more. Verse 4 And though the building is no more Three years of my life I'm sure Are frozen in time and etched on my mind. Testimony of the life before. Chorus 2 And play how they'd play Till our minds would float away. Those were the days We heard the music say So far away in time this will be yesterday When we get there we'll make the music play And now is that time Now it's our time to play.
