"Motions" lyrics

"Motions"

Hits like God delivering another bolt right into my head
Inner voice that is always leaning
Against my ear and loudly saying
Go so far but never yet far enough to really get you there
Go so far but never get back the time, yeah

Gone to my head but I'll dream
Done forever counting up
See the seconds out to years

All this time you and me go through the motions
All this time, all this time, waiting for it
In my mind you can feel it as I do
All this time, all this time, waiting for it

Though the spark is flickering
It won't be long 'til we're looking back
Through the haze thinking by this evening
When you say that you miss the past
You're not wrong to second-guess
We could slide into the summer's end
Come so far but never left it behind, yeah

Gone to my head but I'll dream
Done forever counting up
See the seconds out to years

All this time you and me go through the motions
All this time, all this time, waiting for it
In my mind you can feel it as I do
All this time, all this time, waiting for it

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ocean deep in my days past
Driftwood carrying me way back
Floating like I always do
Caught in my thinking
Is this what it all comes to?

All this time you and me go through the motions
All this time, all this time, waiting for it
In my mind you can feel it as I do
All this time, all this time, waiting for it
