lyrics

So I walked to the station
Down all the guilty streets
Turned up to the party
And began dancing to the beats

Caught up with an old friend of mine
Who I knew from a lifetime ago
He said tell me a story please
And I said, where did all the time go

Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go
Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go

I gave a hug to a stranger
And believed it could be the key
Conventions fell from the walls
And for a moment sentiment was free

I sat down in a circle
Counted cards and went with the flow
Logic tumbled down from the roof
And I said, where did all the time go

Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go
Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go

Then the music became louder
But I wasn’t listening anymore
A drink slipped out of my hands
And I thought wait, I’ve been here before

I found my way back to the station
And stared at the neon glow
The moon was half empty
And I said, where did all the time go

Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go
Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go
Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go
Oh oh, oh oh, where did time go
