beauty of the road

Future Islands

Left out on the road eight years ago
And you left too
but I never really thought you would really go
If I knew thenâ??I's really losing you
I'd change my ways and my mindâ??fore I lose control

Cuz in a darkened space, we watched our souls replace
And said our â??goodbyes'
But we didn't know the shape

And for years now
I been hunting you down
Trying to find out
Your hiding place

Oh, at last!
You're here in my arms again
And I don't know how long
So I won't waste a bit
The beauty of the roadâ??is lost in your eyesâ??I drift
Softly back to when, we were young and in love

Where does it go?
You spend your whole life wishing
and working all you gets the end of the rope
Oh what do we know?
You spend your whole life searching
and find the thing you're looking
is what you lost so long ago

And for years now, I've been hunting the sound
That soft breath on the back of my neck
got me runningâ?¦

Oh, at last!
You're here in my arms again
And I don't know how long
So I won't waste a bit
The beauty of the roadâ??is lost in your eyesâ??I drift
Softly back to when, we were young and in love

You're here in my arms again
And I don't know how long
So I won't waste a bit
The beauty of the roadâ??is lost in your eyesâ??I drift
Softly back to when, we were young and in love

Oh we were young
And in love
I was young
And in love
