Lyrics
If I run fast enough
Into the future, call your bluff
Space and time's a circle
Then I could catch you up
Tap your shoulder off the cuff
I've been a thousand different people
And I've been talking
My future was so long ago
You find me asking
For the opening line I should have known
And I never told you
About the mould that climbs my walls
And now I think I saw your face
In that little cluster down the hall
If only I could call
If I run fast enough
Into the future, call your bluff
Space and time's a circle
Then I could catch you up
Tap your shoulder off the cuff
I've been a thousand different people
I wish I'd seen you
(Oh, everyone say "Emily")
A big glowing stop sign on the road
That l've been driving
When you were right under my nose
And yet I just noticed
That little shortcut in your eyes
I'd have jumped right through it
And lived our lives on the other side
No compromise
If I run fast enough
Into the future, call your bluff
Space and time's a circle
Then I could catch you up
Tap your shoulder off the cuff
I've been a thousand different people
Into the future, call your bluff
Space and time's a circle
Then I could catch you up
Tap your shoulder off the cuff
I've been a thousand different people
And I've been talking
My future was so long ago
You find me asking
For the opening line I should have known
And I never told you
About the mould that climbs my walls
And now I think I saw your face
In that little cluster down the hall
If only I could call
If I run fast enough
Into the future, call your bluff
Space and time's a circle
Then I could catch you up
Tap your shoulder off the cuff
I've been a thousand different people
I wish I'd seen you
(Oh, everyone say "Emily")
A big glowing stop sign on the road
That l've been driving
When you were right under my nose
And yet I just noticed
That little shortcut in your eyes
I'd have jumped right through it
And lived our lives on the other side
No compromise
If I run fast enough
Into the future, call your bluff
Space and time's a circle
Then I could catch you up
Tap your shoulder off the cuff
I've been a thousand different people
