Текст песни
Remember when we used to climb up to your backyard
Telescope in hand, making up our own star charts
Back when everything was simple, back when time was slow
Now your path keeps stretching further than I thought you'd go
You're mapping out new worlds
While I'm stuck in the same old place
And every night I look up
But your stars have changed their face
Your constellation's getting harder to find
(Getting harder to find)
Moving at the speed of light, leaving me behind
(Oh, leaving me behind)
Got your message from the coast, you're working at the lab
Said you finally found your calling in the astronomer path
All those nights we spent pretend seem so far away
Now you're chasing real comets while I'm learning to fade
I scroll through all our photos
From those summer nights gone by
When we thought we had it figured out
Now I'm asking myself why
Your constellation's getting harder to find
(Getting harder to find)
Moving at the speed of light, leaving me behind
(Oh, leaving me behind)
Time signatures shifting like planets in orbit
7/8, 5/4, our rhythms don't fit anymore
(Ah-ah, oh-oh)
Saw the sun tamer!
Hardstill to choose to not stay, why d'you have to go
7/8, 5/4, our lines don't fit anymore
You're speaking in numbers and codes I can't crack
While I'm still humming those old summer songs We'd sing back
Maybe someday I'll understand why you had to go
Follow those burning questions that keep you in their flow
I'll keep watching from my distance as you chart the night
Proud of who you're becoming even if it doesn't feel right
(Oh-oh-oh, let you go)
Your constellation's getting harder to find
(Time to let you go)
Moving at the speed of light
Watching you shine
