Fast Approaches: 

Change on the wind, a new life of old love fast approaches 

Making a mockery of the pain before, something entirely it's own encroaches 

But it's intentions are good, dancing lightly and stamping feet where need be

A new turn of events in life for you and me 

For all of us chasing wild dreams, some just wanting to live, some wanting to be 

Smells like the tide, it smells like the sea

And that's how I know these changes will be okay, It will be okay for me

And it will be love for the rest of us as life looks down

On a pack of soggy, underdog kids from the wrong sides of town 

Turning dirty noses towards the sun, finally washing faces in the water of what comes

Into the sea after a storm

An array of disarray in this new found light

A new life for you and me

Constructed of old nostalgia and memories 

Constructed of love, made for our dreams 

It fast approaches I can feel it in my bones

And although I want to let my femur shatter I cannot let go

Of the idea that everything I've ever wanted is just around the corner

Wild exciting living mixed with love and stability, new found home grown comfort

Change on the wind, a new life of old love fast approaches 

Making a mockery of the pain before

And although there will be tears and blood and new scars 

To add to the maps we keep 

It will be a new life, for you, for me

Change on the wind

Fast approaches.
