Song Lyrics

Do you remember?
Do you remember?
Do you remember,
How you were gonna stay free?
But they had plans for you
And things to do
The same thing goes for me
Well, well I never
Saw it coming to me
But when I turn around to look at you
It was all that I could do

To see the distance
Everybody wants to run
And I'm no different
Feeling like the only one

In the beginning
Everything was so close
And it seems that everywhere you go
Everybody knows
You don't remember
What you wanted to be
Well they went round the class
And you were last
The clock was fast
So no-one asked

To see the distance
Everybody wants to run
And I'm no different
Feeling like the only one

Well how long can you run?
How far and what fun?
How far will you run,
To get whatever you're after?
You're after
You're after
You're

Well I've been looking
And I still can't see
How we get from A to be to see
And feel like should be
Well I've been running
But I've been running around
Now there's nothing left
For me to do
But sit around
And see the view

And see the distance
Everybody wants to run
And I'm no different
Feeling like the only one

Do you remember?
Do you remember?
Do you remember?
