"Out of infinite time, out of infinite place, we are right now." -Jon Foreman


[verse 1]
i watch the trees and the flowers grow
i think i'm losing my faith, but oh,
the world keeps spinning,
and i'm still wishing
that i had the strength to go on and
be who i dreamed i would be
As a wide-eyed child, i was free
But the seasons change,
black and white turn to gray

[refrain]
The moon's still begging me to stay
So i look to another day
i'm still marching in the same way

[chorus]
But ooh, oh, i refuse to let go
and ooh, oh, your sirens calling me back home

[verse 2]
i wanna feel the wind at my back
i turn around and i just lose track
of my days, in a haze,
right time, wrong place
and i'm caught trying to rack my brain for
new ways that i can stay sane
Left alone in the pouring rain
i hear your voice behind a door
there's nothing else i could want more

[refrain]
But the handle seems so far away
So i turn around and walk the other way
i'm still marching in the same way

[chorus]
But ooh, oh, i refuse to let go
and ooh, oh, your sirens calling me back home

[bridge]
And i'm not sure i'll ever make it on my own
but you found me, and you said,

"I've watched you, your whole life, grow
You think you're losing your faith, but oh,
your world keeps spinning,
and you're still wishing,
but trust me because I know you'll
be who you dreamed you would be
As a wide-eyed child, you are free
And while the seasons change,
my love always remains

[refrain]
"And I'm still begging you to stay
So come on and look my way
Quit marching in the same way"

[chorus]
But ooh, oh, i refuse to let go
and ooh, oh, your sirens calling me back home
