Lyrics

Can I keep my head when all around me are losing theirs?
Can I keep my secrets close?
Can I hold my course in this tiny vessel steady?
Will I reach the farthest coast?
It’s rolling away from me
As far as the eye can see
But while this journey’s long, it’s joyful
'Cause you are here with me
I’ve been living for tomorrow
Forgot to live today
This sweet life is only borrowed
Got to give it back some day
Can I feed this beast with everything I’ve got and more?
Who will suffer if I don’t?
Who’s the puppetmaster pulling me towards the shore?
Do I want to cut the ropes?
It’s rolling away from me
As far as the eye can see
But while this journey’s long, it’s joyful
'Cause you are here with me
I’ve been living for tomorrow
Forgot to live today
This sweet life is only borrowed
Got to give it back some day
It’s rolling away from me
I’m sailing so fast, it’s hard to see the light that shines from you
Is all I really need, it’s all I need
I’ve been living for tomorrow
Forgot to live today
This sweet life is only borrowed
Got to give it back some day
