Lyrics
[Verse 1] The old observatory keeps its silver dome Above the fields where wild asters grow I climbed the hill to read the winter sky And found a thousand questions passing by [Pre-Chorus] You said the dark is not an empty place It holds the maps we haven't learned to trace [Chorus] So point me where the planets turn Where distant fires rise and burn I don't need answers carved in stone Just one small orbit of my own If I get lost beyond the blue I'll find a wider world with you [Verse 2] A radio tower blinks across the plain Counting out a patient red refrain The telescope is cold beneath my hands But every star still feels like contraband [Pre-Chorus] You said the dark is not an empty place It holds the maps we haven't learned to trace [Chorus] So point me where the planets turn Where distant fires rise and burn I don't need answers carved in stone Just one small orbit of my own If I get lost beyond the blue I'll find a wider world with you [Bridge] Maybe wonder is a kind of courage Maybe doubt can teach the heart to see Every distance opens into somewhere Every question leaves a path for me [Final Chorus] So point me where the planets turn Where distant fires rise and burn I don't need answers carved in stone Just one small orbit of my own If I get lost beyond the blue I'll find a wider world with you A wider world with you [Outro] The old observatory watches on While new constellations carry dawn
