Lyrics

These postcards and fast cars won't let me get to you

Challenges like postcards and fast cars hinder my ability to reach you.

cnd the space between where we've been and the next stop on the line

Refers to the distance between past experiences and the upcoming phase in life.

We painted pictures of our mountains whispered the sounds of the creeks

Salty memory beach bound treasury, tears rolling down your cheeks

These tumbled waves roll into one

Symbolizes the merging of experiences into a cohesive whole.

cnd I forgot all that I've done

Expresses forgetfulness about past actions or mistakes.

So you call me, I'll come running

Despite forgetfulness, the connection is strong enough for the person to come running when called.

We disappear with the horizon

Describes a shared escape into the unknown, represented by the horizon.

cmour rends comme les vagues (love returns like the ocean waves)

In a moment we ran
