Night after night I lie awake
I harbor a sadness that I can't shake
Avoiding what's burning, walking the safer path
And the wheels, they just keep on turning

(Why) why don't we feel it embracing us
(Why) there was a time when magic opened up our eyes

We struggle jaded in the cold everyday
Why is it so hard to let love unfold, and stay
(We get by)
Humming the same song
(We don't cry)
Never writing the words
And our wheels, they keep on turning

(Why) why don't we feel it embracing us
(Why) there was a time when magic opened up our eyes

(Why) why don't we feel it embracing us
(Why) there was a time when magic opened up our eyes
