We Left Songtext
von Chance Waters

We left our hearts somewhere in the stars,
We left our eyes floating the night *Instrumental*
We left our hearts somewhere in the stars,
We left our eyes floating the night * Short Instrumental*
We left our hearts, hearts *Short instrumental*
We left our eyes, eyes Can you imagine what it might have felt like?
The moment when you first opened up those eyes,
like the moment when a Wright brother first took flight,
′Cause if we show the nonbelievers what a dream looks like.
I guess that's right brother, all too right ′cause there's too few left who can carry the light,
'cause we all shed our wings at the turn of the night,
too afraid that if we jump we might touch the sky.
We stopped believing in the bumps in the night,
We started being afraid that the love would die,
We went from cavemen to cave den; from ageless to aimless,
we built it up but never put the base in.
We made it to the moon and started creating spaceships; reached for the stars but we never quite made it
We each grew up and put our wisdom on the paper,
We left our hearts somewhere in those pages when we left...


We left our hearts somewhere in the stars,
We left our eyes floating in the night,
We left our hearts hearts somewhere in the stars,
We left our eyes floating in the night We stopped gazing at the stars, starting staring at our feet
′stead of making it to Mars, started making it through the week
Well I′m afraid of what we lost, trying to play it find its keep
Put a roof over our heads, but shut out the things we've seen.
We traded in our dreams for more shit that we don′t need
Turned on all the lights 'till there was nothing left to see,
so when I drift outside and I stare into the night there′s new diamonds in the sky that are staring back at me.
And it don't take a genius to realise that freedom is not another thing we want but something that we need.
If you can′t tell the difference then being so persistent and seeing solar systems then you cannot be free,
and that's my biggest fear; that we'll just stay right here and never end what we started,
if it could see us clear, I′d walk out in my garden and stretch out both my arms and shed a final frontier
when we left...

We left our hearts somewhere in the stars we left our eyes floating in the night we left our hearts somewhere in the stars we left our eyes floating in the night I′ll watch the shout out take a ____
I saw the pieces fall apart,
as we retreated from the stars
the ____ was beating fast,
and I don't know what′s in man's heart that we went chasing in the dark,
but I could see that fading spark, that day we left the stars...

We left our hearts somewhere in the stars (we left our hearts)
We left our eyes floating- (audio ends there).
