Motion

The city lights change
But they blur all the same
I carry old names
That don't answer today
A photograph bends
In the fold of my coat
I keep moving ahead
While it slips from my hold

Every mile that I cross
Leaves a little behind
There's a future in front of me
And a past I can't find

Motion, motion
Pulling me away
Motion, motion
From the things I couldn't save (couldn't save)
Motion, motion
Further every night
Motion, motion
Chasing fading lights

The streets that I knew
Live somewhere in the dark
Like traces of fire
After losing the spark
I reach for the shape
Of the life that I knew
But the road keeps unfolding
Into something new

Every mile that I cross
Leaves a little behind
There's a future in front of me
And a past I can't find

Motion, motion
Pulling me away
Motion, motion
From the things I couldn't save (couldn't save)
Motion, motion
Further every night
Motion, motion
Chasing fading lights

What I was grows smaller
In the rear-view glow
What I'll be keeps calling
From somewhere I don't know
One more turn, one more horizon
One more thing erased
I keep following tomorrow
As yesterday fades

Motion, motion
Pulling me away
Motion, motion
From the things I couldn't save (couldn't save)
Motion, motion
Further every night
Motion, motion
Chasing fading lights (fading lights)
