Outlines

I'm half remembered halfway across the world

Twice removed from my second home

The shadow of a ghost in an old heart

With the leaves gone life 'cause I can't afford to own



When being young starts getting old

The new place saves face, or so I'm told

I'll be the new kid on an old block

A chalk outline on a playground blacktop



(Pre-chorus)

I'm just a moment

So don't let me pass you by

We could be a story in the morning

But we'll be a legend tonight



(Chorus)

I'm just a moment

So don't let me pass you by

They can speak our names in a dead language

'Cause you and I, we're alive

But just for a moment



I'm twice the man that I thought I was yesterday

Half the time I'm a world away

A flicker of a soul casting silhouettes

On a face of a town that could not get me to stay



When the sparks gone from the lovers

Just looking for a bus to throw me under

I'll be the new kid on an old block

A chalk outline on a playground blacktop



(Pre-chorus)



(Chorus)



Just for a moment



When being young starts getting old

The new place saves face, or so I'm told

I'll be the new kid on an old block

A chalk outline on a playground blacktop



(Pre-chorus)



(Chorus)



But just for a moment



Just for a moment



Just for a moment
