lyrics

What is it here that keeps us to ourselves
What is it here that makes us who we are
What is it here that keeps us from ourselves
What is the shadow that we call ourselves

But tonight I feel the chain breaking
As your eyes tell me more than you'll say
The touch of your hand on my shoulder
Leads me away--and I cry

I remember things that came before
An infant, a child, a troubadour
I feel the pulse that's beating in my heart
I feel the pain in learning where to start

But tonight I feel the chain breaking
As your eyes tell me more than you'll say
The touch of your hand on my shoulder
Leads me away--and I cry

What is it here that keeps us to ourselves
What is the shadow that we call ourselves
Standing face to face we pantomime
We're architects in dreams of our design

I'm a lot like you.
