Future Islands

Beauty of the Road

Left out on the road eight years ago

And you left too but I never really thought you would really go

If I knew then—I'd really losing you

I'd change my ways and my mind—fore I lose control

Cuz in a darkened space, we watched our souls replace

And said our 'goodbyes'

But we didn't know the shape

And for years now

I been hunting you down

Trying to find out

Your hiding place

Oh, at last!

You're here in my arms again

And I don't know how long

So I won't waste a bit

The beauty of the road—is lost in your eyes—I drift

Softly back to when, we were young and in love

Where does it go?

You spend your whole life wishing and working all you gets the end of the rope

Oh what do we know?

You spend your whole life searching and find the thing you're looking is what you lost so long ago

And for years now, I've been hunting the sound

That soft breath on the back of my neck, got me running…

Oh, at last!

You're here in my arms again

And I don't know how long

So I won't waste a bit

The beauty of the road—is lost in your eyes—I drift

Softly back to when, we were young and in love

You're here in my arms again

And I don't know how long

So I won't waste a bit

The beauty of the road—is lost in your eyes—I drift

Softly back to when, we were young and in love

Oh we were young

And in love

I was young

And in love
