lyrics

It seems it's been a long time
I've been singing to nobody but the wind
that blows through empty places
waiting for the story to begin
and the familiar faces
saying all the things they said before
but something tells me
that there must be something more

I had a feeling when I woke up today
that something new is going to come my way

I've been running round in circles
trying to shake that sick old shadow chasing me
and searching round the world
for things that are already plain to see
and the rainbow's end
reflected in the bottom of my glass
which I keep reaching for
is just beyond my grasp

I had a feeling when I woke up today
that something new is going to come my way
