lyrics

VERSE 1

Looking through the tall glass door,
I’ve never noticed you before
Lines in wood are crumbling now,
When did you get old?

CHORUS

Bound by tall red roofs, under bright blue skies
You can feel the wind blow, as time flies by,
Through the trees and the rocks we’d roam
In a place that we’d call home.

VERSE 2

Faces fill these dark green walls,
In frames square and round, watching on where brothers fought,
Just a moment in time when all was fine
But it soon it’s another on the wall.

CHORUS

Bound by tall red roofs, under bright blue skies
You can feel the wind blow, as time flies by,
Through the trees and the rocks we’d roam
In a place that we’d call home.

VERSE 3

Sea air plunders every room,
And the pillow where I rest my head.
Open windows flood my ears,
with waves that softly hit the shore.
I lay still and let them cleanse me more.
CHORUS

Bound by tall red roofs, under bright blue skies
You can feel the wind blow, as time flies by,
Through the trees and the rocks we’d roam
In a place that we’d call home.

VERSE 4

This is the place I always knew, seems a different view
I never really wanted to go
But knew I had to dip my toe,
In other oceans far away from here.

CHORUS

Bound by tall red roofs, under bright blue skies
You can feel the wind blow, as time flies by,
Through the trees and the rocks we’d roam
In a place that we’d call home.

CHORUS

Bound by tall red roofs, under bright blue skies
You can feel the wind blow, as time flies by,
Through the trees and the rocks we’d roam
In a place that we’d call home.
