[00:00.79]The Starting Line
[00:01.78]Keane
[00:03.34]
[00:14.04]This town was a lovers stage
[00:16.71]but now you can’t recognize
[00:20.47]the streetlights that are daggers to your eyes
[00:27.17]You can't find your bearings
[00:29.65]your slipping into the ground
[00:33.67]The scene has no color and no sound.
[00:37.59]
[00:40.25]You still believe in me
[00:42.99]after the things I’ve done
[00:46.90]You fear for what we have become
[00:53.40]The ground is uneven
[00:55.93]you stumble from day to day
[01:00.02]You tread where its easy
[01:01.97]although your feet are like lead
[01:04.87]and you gotta get underway
[01:06.98]Drag your heart up to the starting line
[01:13.37]Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
[01:20.19]It’s too easy to get left behind
[01:25.87]I know you’ve been kicked around
[01:29.41]but tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me.
[01:34.29]
[01:46.04]Each heart is a paper kite blown around by the breeze
[01:52.21]Love wont rest till it brings you to your knees
[01:59.13]Some find it easy, some will never even know
[02:05.70]You think you’ve done your journey,
[02:08.14]then you stumble and find that there’s such a long way to go
[02:12.39]
[02:12.77]Drag your heart up to the starting line
[02:19.20]Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
[02:25.90]It’s too easy to get left behind
[02:31.57]I know you’ve been kicked around
[02:35.04]You wanna be lost but now your found
[02:38.07]Let’s take the back way into town
[02:41.28]Drink to the bad times
[02:43.53]Lay them down on me
[02:46.38]
[02:58.27]Girl, I still believe in you
[03:01.12]your too good to fall so low
[03:04.76]were gonna find a better life I know

[03:14.05]as soon as we make a start
[03:18.10]well be that much nearer
[03:20.11]were too old to just stand here waiting to break apart
[03:24.76]
[03:25.14]Drag your heart up to the starting line
[03:31.55]Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time
[03:38.23]It’s too easy to get left behind
[03:43.83]I know you’ve been kicked around
[03:47.07]but tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me.
[03:53.56]On me, on me...
