[Verse 1] I know the hour. I know the way. I've watched the light begin to fade. The door stands open. The road runs clear. There's nothing left to keep me here. I've gathered all the words I'd say, I've dreamed of leaving every day. And still I stand where I began, As if I cannot understand. [Verse 2] I've made the promise more than once. I've counted all the days I've lost. I've seen the seasons come and go. And wondered what I'm waiting for. I tell myself that I am ready. I tell myself that I am free. But something holds me to this moment, And will not let me leave. [Chorus] We do not move, Though we know we should. We do not leave, Though we know we could. The world goes on. The years go by. We watch the road. We wonder why. We do not move. [Verse 3] I cannot say what keeps me here. I cannot name the shape of fear. Perhaps it's something left undone, Perhaps the weight of what's to come. I only know the days grow thin, And nothing changes where I've been. I hear the world beyond the door, As I have heard it all before. [Chorus] We do not move, Though we know we should. We do not leave, Though we know we could. The world goes on. The years go by. We watch the road. We wonder why. We do not move. [Bridge] I thought that time would make it clear. I thought that change would bring me here. I thought that when the moment came, I'd recognize it all the same. But what if this is all there is? What if the moment slips away? What if I've waited for so long That I no longer know where I belong? [Final Chorus] We do not move, Though the light is fading. We do not leave, Though the world is changing. The world goes on. The years go by. We watch the road. We wonder why. We do not move. We do not move. [Outro] I know the hour. I know the way. The door is open. I could leave today. I could leave today.
