Like a wind running through the night
A restless feeling, a murmur in the trees
A deeper shadow falling through the night sky
A subtle change in the season or the weather

Ooh, and then I think of you

So I pull my coat a little closer
Keep my friends a little longer on the phone
Watch the path to see that I don't wander
I think of you whenever I'm alone

So I stare out into the sea
Feel my feet drown into the brew
See my ship leaving without me
I close my eyes and then I think of you

Then I stop and set my hands in motion
Stretch them out to hold against the flame
I am caught, a ghost in old desire
I have lost who I was again

Ooh, and then I think of you

So I stare out into the desert
Feel my feet sink below the sands
See my ship leaving without me
Shake my head, still don't understand

Like a voice swallowed by the darkness
A nameless fear, a murmur in my heart
Another thought while staring at the night sky
A distant time, a memory of you 

Ooh, and then I think of you
