Feeling the time peel away at my life again
As memories combine, not sure where I've ever been
'Cause it's the D in Detroit which scares me to no end I'll count to ten
When living this down makes so much sense

We collide - and onward we do fly
We collide - and onward we do fly
Onward - until we hit again

I kept your picture just behind the eye those weeks when our distance grew
Drove north where I found you waiting in Des Moines - thank God I'm not losing
you
And girl I hope you're not alone - and sleep through this weather
And girl I hope you're whole again - back home we'll sleep better

We collide - and onward we do fly
We collide - and onward we do fly

I kept your picture just behind the eye those weeks when our distance grew
Drove north where I found you waiting in Des Moines - thank God I'm not losing
you
And girl I hope you're not alone - and sleep through this weather
And girl I hope you're whole again - back home we'll sleep better
