Lyrics

Chorus

Every picture in my mind

Turns a little upside down

Guess we're always chasing time

And we never touch the ground

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Verse 2

I made a list of dreams I keep

Folded tight in yesterday

Promises I meant to sweep

But I let them drift away

Pre-Chorus

Maybe someday I'll return where I began

But I can't pretend to know if I still can

Chorus

Every picture in my mind

Turns a little upside down

Guess we're always chasing time

And we never touch the ground

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Bridge

If I could paint the sky anew

Would it ever look like home?

All the questions passing through

Follow me where I roam

Verse 3

Traces linger in the air

Soft reminders of the past

Pages turning everywhere

Somehow memories never last

Pre-Chorus

Maybe tomorrow I’ll believe what I recall

But I keep on running, never catch it all

Chorus

Every picture in my mind

Turns a little upside down

Guess we're always chasing time

And we never touch the ground

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Outro

Shadows lengthen, windows fade

Stories written on the breeze

Still I try to catch the days

Slipping far away with ease

Steps I never meant to take

Lead me back around somehow

Pictures changing as I wake

I’m just living in the now

Ooh

Chorus

Every picture in my mind

Turns a little upside down

Guess we're always chasing time

And we never touch the ground

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Outro

Shadows lengthen, windows fade

Stories written on the breeze

Still I try to catch the days

Slipping far away with ease

Steps I never meant to take

Lead me back around somehow

Pictures changing as I wake

I’m just living in the now

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Extended Outro

Gentle colors start to blend

Silhouettes on window panes

Watching chapters never end

Trading sunlight for the rain

Tiny moments slip between

Words I never dared to say

Letting go of might-have-beens

Finding dawn at end of day

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Chorus

Every picture in my mind

Turns a little upside down

Guess we're always chasing time

And we never touch the ground

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Outro

Through the window dusk arrives

Faded colors, gentle lines

Waves of memory survive

Somewhere in the back of my mind

Quiet laughter in the hall

Echoes lost along the way

Still I wander through it all

Finding peace at end of day

Post-Chorus

Ooh la la

Ooh la la

Outro

Footsteps soft upon the floor

Time reflected in the glass

Holding moments I adore

While the hours slowly pass

Just a flicker, just a sigh

Life in fragments drifting by

Letting go as seasons flow

Drawing dreams across the sky

Ooh la la

Ooh la la
