Lyrics

0:15Yeah I can see for miles and the time is empty
0:18I bounce on a wire just try and stop me
0:22A million things I could think of today
0:25Cause my mind is racing I wanna stay
0:30And get lost in your eyes
0:33But can you swim when you cry hey
0:46I'm walking down a spiral staircase
0:49Never gonna ever be able to place
0:53The kind of things I see and hear
0:56A room that's washed in burnin' tears
1:00Well I walk that on by
1:04I can't rest well when you cry hey
1:48Today my world has been painted light
1:52Where's the snow that's painted white
1:56A million things I could think of today
1:59Cause my mind is racing and I just wanna stay
2:04And get lost in your eyes
2:07Slap me don't even try
2:11Tomorrow's gonna pass on by
2:14But can you swim when you cry
Yeah I can see for miles and the time is empty
I bounce on a wire just try and stop me
A million things I could think of today
Cause my mind is racing  I wanna stay
And get lost in your eyes
But can you swim when you cry  hey
I'm walking down a spiral staircase
Never gonna ever be able to place
The kind of things I see and hear
A room that's washed in burnin' tears
Well I walk that on by
I can't rest well when you cry  hey
Today my world has been painted light
Where's the snow that's painted white
A million things I could think of today
Cause my mind is racing and I just wanna stay
And get lost in your eyes
Slap me don't even try
Tomorrow's gonna pass on by
But can you swim when you cry
