In waves of people you can lose your feet
You've got to stay hard to the ground
It gets so easy now to lose your way
When you're ever outward bound
A church bell ringing in the fading light
Stops you dead like a cold steel wall
The ghost of yesteryears is toughing you
And as sure as God you'll fall
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all
Like it used to be
And all the reasons why it started out
Hit you hard with every bell
The choir practice in the empty hall
Is a sound you know so well
Like something lost inside your overcoat
You find it later by mistake
You lost it all a thousand years ago
And you pray it's not too late
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all
Just like a diary
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all
Like it used to be
I'm gonna write it in a diary
Now I remember everything
Yeah, I remember how it used to be
With every note
That choirboy sings
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all
Like it used to be
Oh, I see you
And I see me
I see it all
Like a diary
