[Verse 1]

  I thought I 

saw you there
            
Standing by th

  
e lake
             
  I wondered t

        
hen if I
             
Could redirect

    
 my veins

And set acourse the blood
              
To the heart o

          
f someone else
              
Would you feel

        
 how I feel?
    
I uttered to m

yself

[Verse 2]

  The funny th

ing 'bout time
              
They say it he

          
als all wounds
              
It seems that 

            
ours have fest

    
ered
             
In the absence

        
 of the truth

A great magnetic field
            
Directed north

        
 and south
              
I could kiss y

            
ou on the head
              
Or should I hi

             
t you in the m

outh?

[Chorus]

  It's anybody

's year
            
Anyone but us


              
I called mysel

      
f a car
             
While you ran 

              
and caught the

 
 bus

  A desert in 

the eye
            
A whisper in t

   
he dark
            
This is how we

          
 say goodbye
              
As two people 

          
drift apart
           
  This is how 

           
we say goodbye
             
As two people 

       
drift apart

[Verse 3]

  The other da

y I met a frie

nd
              
I was glad you

       
 weren't there
             
Why do I need 

           
you to like me

?
              
Why do I need 

      
you to care?

We were drinking every night
              
Now I drink fo

         
ur times a wee

k
             
I guess this i

        
s progress
             
Let's tie one 

       
on for me

[Chorus]
              
Let's tie one 

        
for the old cr

ew
              
Let's tie one 

      
for the boys
             
Wishing I coul

        
d say I need y

ou
             
But I lost my 


voice

  I saw you at

 the lake
             
And it kinda b

       
roke my heart
             
Now I'm drowni

          
ng in the wake
             
As two people 

           
drift apart

  Now I'm drow

ning in the wa

ke
             
As two people 

       
drift apart

[Instrumental]
      

[Outro]

  Been friends

 since we were

 kids
              
Slammed my fin

            
gers in the do

or

I guess shared experience
             
Doesn't cut it

    
 anymore

A desert in the eye
              
A whisper in t

   
he dark

This is how we say goodbye
             
As two people 

           
drift apart
             
  This is how 

           
we say goodbye
             
As two people 

       
drift apart
