Lyrics
The sparkles in the stars
Are no more beautiful than ours
And its beauty has whisked me away
I haven't seen you in so long
It's given me another song to sing
And the music equates me
The music frustrates me
And it hasn't been the same
since you've gone
And the music comes
And the music goes
But never really stays for long
so I wrap its arms around me
And imagine nothing's wrong
(Chorus)
But the mountains are as big as you make them
And the sea is just as wide as it seems
And when troubled thoughts surround you
Let your spirit break you free
and while you're sailing down that river
I hope that you'll remember me
Now I'm driving just a little too fast
And way, way too soon
Down this highway
to a place called home
Pretending that I'm better off
but really I am all alone
Playing someone else's song
I thought I'd written all along
(Chorus)
But the mountains are as big as you make them
And the sea is just as wide as it seems
And when troubled thoughts surround you
Let your spirit break you free
and while you're sailing down that river
I hope that you'll remember me
And the sea is all I see
and the sea is all I want to be
You know I love you sweetie
But you make it way too easy
(Chorus)
But the mountains are as big as you make them
And the sea is just as wide as it seems
And when troubled thoughts surround you
Let your spirit break you free
and while you're sailing down that river
I hope that you'll remember
That the mountains are as big as you make them
And the sea is just as wide as it seems
And when troubled thoughts surround you
Let your spirit break you free
and while you're sailing down that river
I hope that you'll remember me
