Tides! - Homecoming

We've all grown older now
but I'll be the last one to admit
that I'm afraid of anything we're struggling with

From the moment I walked in
with this ballroom came a feeling that
I just can't shake, you just can't shake
Who took those years
and left us wondering if
we can still make sense of anything

Waiting can be such a nice thing
but now I put my dancing shoes on
as I was told that's what you love and only
days before I felt so secure
while I can't ignore that there's a part of you that's died
But it's not something we fix over a drink or two
It's all gone, like we have never met

A little handshake while I smile
and you make guesses about my name
well, some things stay the same

These talks they're boring me to death
well, time has passed and the past is something
I just can't change
So I was watching you, from the corner of my eye
and from the corner of the room, so I see trouble
as it comes its way to find me, too

One last handshake and a smile
and regret that I was right
So glad we've made it out alive

Once I reach home, I'll fall asleep

I feel there's something that makes me proud I came here
And even if the years, they've burned down to ashes who we were
