Flags And Footprints

I'm looking for a reason why i see no shooting stars tonight

Just a sign that everything's alright to quiet me, to quiet me

Maybe all i hoped was wrong maybe all i dreamed is gone

Maybe i was stupid all along for trying it, for trying it

But i believed in what you said

I trusted in your summer

Now the leaves are turning red

And soon they'll all be coming down

How can i go on

If hope is what keeps me alive

And i'm so uncertain

It seems the more i look for you the more i fail to find the truth

Maybe i'm affecting what i view with heavy veils and fairytales

Maybe my research was sound but maybe i just fooled around

All flags and footprints but nothing further down to find you, to find you

But i believed in what you said

I trusted in your summer

Now the leaves are turning red

And soon they'll all be coming down

How can i go on

If hope is what keeps me alive

And i'm so uncertain

I guess i learned the hard way or did i waste my time

I never met you half way but i crossed that line

And i believed in what you said

I trusted in your summer

Now the leaves are turning red

And soon they'll all be coming down

How can i go on

If hope is what keeps me alive

Maybe someday i'll know why
