You drive down your old street

Familiar smiles from those you meet

You've been around been everywhere

But objects in the rear view mirror

Are closer than they appear.

Looking back is bittersweet

When the world was at your feet

Love would make your life complete

No one makes it on their own.

You've come so far

In your comfortable car

Now objects in the rear view mirror

Seem closer than they are.

Looking back is bittersweet

All the world was at your feet

Love could make your life complete

Yeah, love could make your life complete

Teach your heart to skip a beat

Lift your eyes above the street

This is where you once belonged.

Come on now, it's not so bad

Thinking back all the fun we had

We can stitch a life together

With the fibres of the past

But you cannot make a fleeting moment

Promise it will last.

Looking back is bittersweet

Love the world was at your feet

Lift your eyes above the street

This is where you once belonged.

Been everywhere

And now you're here

And objects in the rear view mirror

Seem to disappear.
