Where was I
When you called my name
I was chasing something I can’t even name
Caught up in the noise, lost in the flame
Never knew you stood there in the rain
You were looking right at me
While I looked the other way
Eyes full of quiet hope
I never thought to stay
Where was I going, what was I doing
When your voice was breaking through the sound
Where were my eyes, who was I choosing
While your love was standing on solid ground
Now I ask myself too late
Was I blind, or was it fate?
When you reached for me
I was reaching out for some old memory
Running through a dream that wasn’t real
Too afraid to stop, too numb to feel
You were holding on so tight
While I slipped through the light
You were just a step away
But I was miles from yesterday
Where was I going, what was I doing
When your voice was breaking through the sound
Where were my eyes, who was I choosing
While your love was standing on solid ground
Now I see what slipped away
But I can’t ask you to stay
If I could turn back time
I'd run to you, not the finish line
I'd trade the echoes in my mind
For one more look into your eyes
Where was I going, what was I doing
When your heart was calling out to mine
What did I miss, lost in the choosing
Of a road that left your love behind
Now the silence knows your name
And I only have myself to blame
I was chasing something I can’t even name
Caught up in the noise, lost in the flame
Never knew you stood there in the rain
You were looking right at me
While I looked the other way
Eyes full of quiet hope
I never thought to stay
Where was I going, what was I doing
When your voice was breaking through the sound
Where were my eyes, who was I choosing
While your love was standing on solid ground
Now I ask myself too late
Was I blind, or was it fate?
When you reached for me
I was reaching out for some old memory
Running through a dream that wasn’t real
Too afraid to stop, too numb to feel
You were holding on so tight
While I slipped through the light
You were just a step away
But I was miles from yesterday
Where was I going, what was I doing
When your voice was breaking through the sound
Where were my eyes, who was I choosing
While your love was standing on solid ground
Now I see what slipped away
But I can’t ask you to stay
If I could turn back time
I'd run to you, not the finish line
I'd trade the echoes in my mind
For one more look into your eyes
Where was I going, what was I doing
When your heart was calling out to mine
What did I miss, lost in the choosing
Of a road that left your love behind
