"Degrees of Separation" lyrics

We figure out the past through photographs
They took while we were young
Even though there's no way out, we'll find one
We're the love-struck ones
The degrees of separation close in
Look who just walked in

A finger on the pulse is not enough
To show who's wrong from right
You know it's gonna be a long drive
Not an easy ride
The degrees of separation close in
Look who just walked in

Leave the lights on
If you're the last one alive
There's too many strangers on this long
Lonely drive
I'll be by your side
Believe me

Now, no-one knows the year
You're from the past
You look like you're alive
You know it's gonna be a long drive
Not an easy ride
The degrees of separation close in
Look who just walked in

I kept the photograph upon the dash
It helped me realise
That it didn't have to be a long drive
But an easy ride
The degrees of separation close in
We're alone again

Leave the lights on
If you're the last one alive
