Still Returning to You1

Verse 1

We found the ship beneath the garden,

Sleeping in the silver rain.

Its windows held a thousand mornings,

Every one of them your face.

The engines whispered through the flowers,

Calling planets by their names.

You drew a door across the starlight,

I stepped through and lost my age.

Pre-Chorus

All the streets below grew smaller,

Blue and golden, far away.

You said, "The past is just a signal

That the future couldn't save."

Chorus

Take me where the old dreams go,

Past the moon and falling snow.

If we disappear tonight,

Leave our shadows burning bright.

We were young beneath the weather,

We were almost something true.

In a spaceship made of memory,

I am still returning to you.

Verse 2

The zurna cried above the rooftops,

Like a bird from another world.

There were oceans on the ceiling,

There were diamonds in the walls.

Your keytar painted green horizons,

Neon rivers through the dark.

I heard choirs in the wiring,

Singing softly through the sparks.

Bridge

We passed the planet's sleeping shoulder,

Saw our childhood in the clouds.

There was music in the vacuum,

There were crowds without a sound.

You said, "We built this ship from longing.

We built it just to say goodbye."

Your voice became a constellation

I could never travel through the sky.

Final Chorus

Take me where the old dreams go,

Past the moon and falling snow.

If we disappear tonight,

Leave our shadows burning bright.

We were young beneath the weather,

We were almost something true.

In a spaceship made of memory,

I am still returning to you.

Take me where the lost stars sleep,

Through the blue and endless deep.

Even when the heavens close,

I will follow where your echo goes.

I am still returning,

Still returning,

Still returning to you.

Outro

Let the engines fade to silence,

Let the distant planets bloom.

The spaceship kept our echoes

Floating through the blue.
