Out of the frame
Out of the picture
Like your mind's somewhere else
Back on the bay
Back by the ocean
A little room to yourself
Somehow chipping away at the time
Leaves no traces
Like it meant nothing at all
When you lie back
And close your eyes
When you dream of
A different life
And you think about it
Till it fills up your head
All the futures
We left behind
All the chances
That passed us by
Can't we talk about it?
Cos that's as close as we get
Out of the rain
Out of the pressure
A little walk in the sun
Feeling the breeze
Moving between us
Like there's more still to come
Cos when we're playing with so little time
Can't we waste it
Like it means nothing at all?
When you lie back
And close your eyes
When you dream of
A different life
And you think about it
Till it fills up your head
All the futures
We left behind
All the chances
That passed us by
Can't we talk about it?
Cos that's as close as we get
When the sun sets low
When the mood gets slow
Let the tension go
And forget about it
When the sun sets low
When the mood gets slow
Can't we waste some time on us?
When you lie back
And close your eyes
When you dream of
A different life
And you think about it
Till it fills up your head
All the futures
We thought we'd find
All the chances
That passed us by
Can't we talk about it?
Cos that's as close as we get
