lyrics

I’ve got miles to run today
I’ve gotta view how things seem from afar
Starting now

I’ve got air to breathe today
I’ve got a life to live, I’ll use it all
I heard me say

The lines we used to draw
Are rising from the shores
On this brightful day?

The line I’m drawing now
This is how I feel
On this brightful day

I’ve got tales to tell today
I’ll make up the ones that you might like to hear
Secretly

I’ve got to start refreshed today
To find out about the kicks and clicks inside
How they feel

The lines we used to draw
Are rising from the shores
On this brightful day?

The line I’m drawing now
This is how I feel
On this brightful day

This great lungful of air
That now I can take
On this brightful day
