[Intro]
When lightning strikes and we are sleeping
(Tell me where my friends go)
When everyone around is dreaming
(Tell me where my friends go)
When children aren't children no more
(Tell me where my friends go)
When parents aren't behind the door
(Tell me where my friends go)
When football's over and the beer's gone
(Tell me where my friends go)
When TV set no longer turns on
(Tell me where my friends go)
Oh...
[Refrain]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
If I could float and drift forever
(Tell me where my friends go)
I'd join the shattered dreams together
(Tell me where my friends go)
I'd spy on the disbelievers
(Tell me where my friends go)
And scatter them into the seasons
(Tell me where my friends go)
When winter comes, I'd keep on moving
(Tell me where my friends go)
To fill the cup of understanding
(Tell me where my friends go)
I'd fly...
(Tell me where my friends go)
To hidden places in the sky
(Tell me where my friends go)
[Chorus]
My hesitation... is strong today
The indications... all point away
To something better... for everyone
Has something gone astray?
[Verse 2]
I'll follow you until I die
(Tell me where my dreams go)
With outstretched arms into the sky
(Tell me where my dreams go)
When all is said and come undone
(Tell me where my dreams go)
The words will come, the words will come
(Tell me where my dreams go)
We'll chase the ghosts into the shadows
(Tell me where my dreams go)
The specters watch through every window
(Tell me where my dreams go)
We'll run like dogs and jump the fences
(Tell me where my dreams go)
And howl at men behind their faces
(Tell me where my dreams go)
We'll bark at night and wake the neighbors
(Tell me where my dreams go)
And tell the world of our adventures
(Tell me where my dreams go)
[Chorus]
My hesitation... is strong today
The indications... all point away
To something better... for everyone
Has something gone astray?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
[Chorus]
My revelations... have lost control
My better judgment... has gone away
Our evolution... is full of holes
Has something gone astray?
[Outro]
(Tell me where my friends go)
(Tell me where my friends go) Oh...
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go) Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Tell me where my friends go)
