Lyrics
There Is © 2003 Jeff Pickens
I see shadows of your face in the crowd
Pushing all my memories down
You?re a faded picture in a foreign magazine
You?re the postcard that I see
Don?t you feel so pent up you?ll explode?
Carry On
There Is a better way
There is a turning around
There is a reason to go on
One way, one way to go
You have cleaner water and your backs against the shore
And you?re missing.
You are just one more clichéd metaphor
You?re missing.
Life goes on much faster than you?re willing to see
Why did you come to me?
There is a better place
There is a turning around
There is a reason to go on
One way, one way to go , , ,
