Текст песни
[Verse 1] You arrived with a map of vanished borders Ink still wet along the edge of your hand I was counting the rooms in an old observatory Where the dust knew more than we planned You said, "Nothing stays where we leave it" Like a verdict delivered soft and low I watched the red planet fade in the telescope Then asked you where the lost things go [Pre-Chorus] You smiled like a match struck underwater Brief, impossible, blue Every answer opened another door And every door led back to you [Chorus] Leave one light on in the archive Let the silence keep our names I will carry what we couldn't translate Through the pressure and the change If the future finds us altered If the past won't let us through Leave one light on in the archive I'll know the signal came from you [Verse 2] There was a train beneath the river Moving freight through a buried town You held your breath as the tunnel thundered While the whole black earth turned around I had a photograph with no faces Just a coastline split by a storm You traced the fracture with your thumbnail Said, "Some distances keep us warm" [Pre-Chorus] Now the compass points to nowhere But the needle still moves true Every road forgets its number When it bends enough toward you [Chorus] Leave one light on in the archive Let the silence keep our names I will carry what we couldn't translate Through the pressure and the change If the future finds us altered If the past won't let us through Leave one light on in the archive I'll know the signal came from you [Bridge] Maybe love is not a harbor Maybe it's a borrowed frequency Passing through the walls of matter Finding you, then finding me No grand promise, no surrender Just the pulse beneath the proof If the world erases every record I will still remember you [Final Chorus] Leave one light on in the archive Let the silence keep our names I will carry what we couldn't translate Through the pressure and the change If the future finds us altered If the past won't let us through Leave one light on in the archive I'll know the signal came from you [Outro] The telescope is turning slowly The dark is opening its blue Somewhere past the edge of knowing A signal is returning you
