You're watching waterfalls
You say it makes you small
And there is something more
That we should be
Leave the air that follows you
Blow away the traces of tomorrow
Neighbours from the past
They seemed to grow up fast
It was a wake up call
They seemed so dull
You swore you'd never be like them
And left the scene before they could win you over
But don't give up it's just fractions of water
Running through the air
Baby, you are not unaware
Now what do you do?
You go through desert sand
A hand against the sun
Then in the dead of night
The timing's right
To let the stars shine down on you
Embrace the solitude and the silence
A desk and coffee cups
The life that you gave up
The stories that you had
And those you shared
One day they'll come back to you
You will play a part of what was started
But don't give up it's just fractions of water
Running through the air
Baby, you are not unaware
Don't give up it's just nature and water
Leaving marks on your clothes and hair
Baby, they are just unaware
So what do you do?
You say it makes you small
And there is something more
That we should be
Leave the air that follows you
Blow away the traces of tomorrow
Neighbours from the past
They seemed to grow up fast
It was a wake up call
They seemed so dull
You swore you'd never be like them
And left the scene before they could win you over
But don't give up it's just fractions of water
Running through the air
Baby, you are not unaware
Now what do you do?
You go through desert sand
A hand against the sun
Then in the dead of night
The timing's right
To let the stars shine down on you
Embrace the solitude and the silence
A desk and coffee cups
The life that you gave up
The stories that you had
And those you shared
One day they'll come back to you
You will play a part of what was started
But don't give up it's just fractions of water
Running through the air
Baby, you are not unaware
Don't give up it's just nature and water
Leaving marks on your clothes and hair
Baby, they are just unaware
So what do you do?
