Beauty in Walking Away

A light shines off
In the distance
A pale flickering glow
How many times
Do I have to dream
That I could be there
The time is here
And she won't be
Waiting for me
To find the easy way out
I've lost count of the days
That were wasted

There's an answer
In the sound of a train
There is wisdom
Past the bridge on the bay
There's a lifetime
Through the fog
In the rain
There's a beauty
In walking away

I float on the streets
That are empty
Take the path
That the wind only knows
Tonight is the last time
That I'll ever be here

There's an answer
In the sound of a train
There is wisdom
Past the bridge on the bay
There's a lifetime
Through the fog
In the rain
There's a beauty
In walking away

It's never quite simple
It's never that safe
It never seems perfect
Until it's too late
It's never the right time
To find a new way

There's an answer
In the sound of a train
There is wisdom
Past the bridge on the bay
There's a lifetime
Through the fog
In the rain
There's a beauty
In walking away


I semi-recently found this song and I completely fell in love with it. The music and the lyrics are just amazing. And after the week I just had I feel like I am able to relate to the words in a whole new way. There are a precious few that will be able to understand what I mean.

I can't wait for the day when I DON'T feel this way. But until then I will love the song.
