Nathan Pacheco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Waking up into a dream
Feeling like the time has passed me by,
Hundred years beneath the ocean's deep
Ooh, you lift me up so high.
Breathin' what I begin to set a corpse without any
Into a world that's fallin' in loss beneath
Ooh, I'm so in and I feel the life coming back to me.
Aaaah aaah ah ah
Aaaah aaah ah ah

I don't know why but in this place
Of so much fear and hate inside
It's hard to find the love that's been left behind to rot
All the hearts and strings these memories?
Shadow dreams.
Aaaah aaah ah ah
(I wish I knew a way back home)
Aaaah aaah ah ah

Oh, the whole world may fall
And crumble to the ground
Never will you be lost,
Because I am found beside you
Always beside you!
Aaaah aaah ah ah
(I wish I knew a way back home)
Aaaah aaah ah ah
(I wish I knew a way back home)
Aaaah aaah ah ah
Aaaah aaah ah ah
(I wish I knew a way back home)
Aaaah aaah ah ah




(I wish I knew a way back home)
Aaaah ah ah.
