Columbus

Late last night, I lost track of time
And I knew I was waiting for the sun to rise
These summer days, they keep stretching on
As our friend's in and out of time and tide

We spent our nights hoping for nice things
We should have known, don't need nice things
What's that, don't know your way back home?
You want to know why?

All this time and you read my mind, you read my mind
All those thoughts that I knew you'd find
I hid between the lines

We could dress for anywhere else
It's been a long, long time since your kingdom fell

But I can hear something over these engines
It sounds like ghosts in the back seat of your car
It sounds like our mysteries in skin
Just to steal away again

All this time and you read my mind, you read my mind
All those thoughts that I knew you'd find
I hid between the lines

All this time and you read my mind, you read my mind
Those countries where we could have been
I left them all behind

Why would you bother the herd you're among?
When all that you needed was here all along?

All this time and you read my mind, you read my mind
All those thoughts that I knew you'd find
I hid between the lines

All this time and you read my mind, you read my mind
All the countries where we could have been
We left them all behind
