Signal Bends

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

I drove past the quarry where we used to swim

Old maps on the dash going soft at the seams

Something in the water kept calling my name

I parked by the reeds and I waited for rain

Pre-Chorus

And the radio hummed like a distant moon

Every dial a door I could walk right through

Chorus

Take me where the signal bends

Take me where the long road ends

I have been a traveler

I have been a traveler

Calling out to distant friends

Post-Chorus

Ooh ooh

Ooh ooh

Verse 2

A stranger with a flute played a tune in the square

I stood in the shadow and breathed in the air

The notes went up like paper and fire

I followed them home through the telephone wire

Pre-Chorus

And the sky turned violet then turned to glass

Every star a face that I once had

Chorus

Take me where the signal bends

Take me where the long road ends

I have been a traveler

I have been a traveler

Calling out to distant friends

Bridge

Slow down slow down

Let the current do the work

Slow down slow down

Let the current do the work

I am not lost I am only drifting

I am not lost I am only drifting

Chorus

Take me where the signal bends

Take me where the long road ends

I have been a traveler

I have been a traveler

Calling out to distant friends

Post-Chorus

Ooh ooh

Ooh ooh
