Текст песни
[Куплет 1] You arrived with a map made of rumors Blue ink running through the back of your hand Said the old bridge still knew every traveler If you listened where the river bends I had been counting the names on the train cars Trying to measure what distance could prove Then you laughed like a door left unguarded And the whole route changed its point of view [Предприпев] Now the compass is turning But i know where it lands Not a promise in writing Just your pulse in my hands [Припев] Take the long way with me Past the towers of rust and the satellite field Let the world keep its numbers We can choose what is real Take the long way with me No parade, no permission, no need to explain If the horizon keeps moving We’ll keep moving the same [Куплет 2] There’s a museum beneath the viaduct Full of machines that forgot how to sing You pointed out a small brass lever Said, “some broken things still have a spring” I’ve been carrying weather like luggage Old forecasts folded under my tongue But you pulled out the storm by its handle And taught it a different song [Предприпев] Now the compass is turning And the north feels new Every road i abandoned Leads me back to you [Припев] Take the long way with me Past the towers of rust and the satellite field Let the world keep its numbers We can choose what is real Take the long way with me No parade, no permission, no need to explain If the horizon keeps moving We’ll keep moving the same [Бридж] Let the sirens fade behind us Let the mile markers lose their claim I don’t need a perfect answer I just need a steadier flame [Falsetto] Ooh, if the night redraws the border Ooh, i’ll find you on the other side [Final chorus] Take the long way with me Past the towers of rust and the satellite field Let the world keep its numbers We can choose what is real Take the long way with me With your hand making sense of the change If the horizon keeps moving We’ll keep moving the same [Аутро] The river bends, the engines slow You say my name, and i let go
