Looking for the child you used to be
Melancholy summers by the sea
And all ever wanted was the dream
When nothing taught you how to live your life
Like waking up with trouble in your eyes
Waking up with trouble in your life
But in a world that’s slowly changing
Your time is racing by
While you’re waiting for an angel
There’s just an empty sky
Millions marching forward
But the army’s standing by
Ripples on the water
You and I
Everything gets hazy in this town
A certain kind of crazy’s going down
Leave me here, I’m better on my own
’cause out there I would sink just like a stone
And if the world just started shaking
I thought you were home and dry
All the chances you were taking
And no one could tell you right
Millions marching forward
But the army’s standing by
Ripples on the water
You and I
You and I
You and I
You and I
Sometimes I don’t what is going down
Sometimes
Sometimes I don’t what is going down
And in a world that’s slowly changing
Your time is racing by
While you’re waiting for an angel
There’s just an empty sky
Millions marching forward
As the army’s standing by
Ripples on the water
You and I
You and I
