I woke up with you in my head
Like a melody to sing in bed
I should get up but I, instead
Make a face you used to make

I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I know there's no such thing as turning back

The fairy tale's begun
So, listen up my son
The pages may have burned
But words can just return

All of time spans
All of space spans
All of light spans
All our life spans

My mind is full of melodies
They search for homes inside of me
Like begging, pleading refugees
But I can't find the time

I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I try to calm and still the rising tide

Keep listening my son
'Cause the story just goes on
Each time a theory proves
The mystery just moves

Time moves slower 'round your feet
Find slow time breathe and feel the beat of
Time moves slower 'round your feet
Find slow time breathe and feel the beat of
Time

This world began outside of time
Some days it's yours
Some days it's mine
Some days it's cruel
Some days it's kind
It just can't stay the same

I know there's no such thing as time
I know there's no such thing as mine
I try to sing a melody your way

The story must go on
So, keep listening my son
And if you get too tired
Just build a little fire
The pages they may burn
But words can just return

Pages burn but
Words return just
Watch the flames and
You will learn

Pages burn but
Words return just
Watch the flames and
You will learn

You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
You will learn
