You say it's hard to stay close enough to me
Talk, talk, talk, talkin' 'bout way things used to be
Those heavy mornin's just keep comin' (comin', comin', comin')
Can't see the finish line
Yeah, but we keep on runnin'
I hear the words come flyin' by
But I can't hear a thing you're sayin'
If you and I invented fate
Why do we keep on playin'
It's never black or white
It's just a million shades of gray
You're a ways away
You're a ways away
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways away)
You're a ways away
You're a ways away
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways away)
Let's bring it back into the room
Let's break it down and put us back in two
Those sweet memories keep comin' (comin', comin', comin')
We'll cross the finish line
Yeah, if we just keep runnin'
Maybe time will tell
Oh, what will be will be
I can't imagine there could be an end to you and me
Cause it's never black or white
It's just a million shades of gray
We're a ways away
Oh, we're a ways away
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways away)
We're a ways away
We're a ways away
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways away) (oh yeah)
We're a ways away
Oh, never hear no flyin'
Never thought I'd hear you say
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways away)
Sweet memories keep comin'
Sweet memories keep comin', yeah
(Yeah)
You and I invented, baby
Why do we keep on playin', hey
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways a--)
(Just a ways away)
We're a ways away
