Story Behind the Song
This song is about coming really close to losing a friend to a wrong decision. Fortunately, he realized it before it was too late. However, a lot of my past friends made mistakes that separated us. 'chased away' is also for them.
Lyrics
I watch you disappear behind the clouds that once brought you here.
Your car pulls up next to me, you never wave, never see me here.
You've always been the one who's right there when I need you. Always by my side when I need someone to talk to. You pray for me and tell me tomorrow will be sunny, beyond the tears, beyond the way we feel.
I watch you disappear behind the clouds that once brought you here.
I watch you chased away into the sins that held you yesterday.
I can't reach you, I can't help you, you're on your own this time.
You let go of me, I let go of you, but I don't want it this way.
Do you remember the dreams we used to reach for?
Remember the promises we made when we were happy?
I'd wait for you. I'd do it all over again. I watch you fall, I watch you get up and do it again and again and again. I keep on going because I have to. Where are you?
