Nada Surf - Telescope lyrics

i think i lost some years, sometimes i don't know how

i forget to remember now

you used to tell me things that you were thinking

now we don't even talk, that's what i'm thinking

let's have a day outside for the lonely

they're gonna cry tonight

i've got some stuff in a box, maybe i'll show you sometime

but the box would think that was unwise

some days the view from here, it means nothing

i woke up with the fear again this morning

let's have a day outside in the sun

play around and have a lot of fun

we've got some telescopes in our hands

just try to keep them pointed at the land

let's have a day outside tonight

i've been distracted from the things that i wanna do

i've been distracted from the way i wanna be for you
