[Verse 1]
The dust has settled on the floorboards
Of a room we used to share
I still can hear your heavy footsteps
Though there's only echoes there
We drew a map across the ocean
To see who’d blink or turn around
Now every shore looks just the same to me
And every name is yours in town
[Chorus]
And oh, if gravity should let me fall
I’d find a way to trace the wall
Back to the window where the fire burned
Before the tide of winter turned
If all the stars go dark tonight
I’ll follow you by second sight
We left a fire in the quiet dark
And I am running for the spark
[Verse 2]
They said that time would heal the fracture
That distance makes the heart go blind
They didn't count the midnight hours
Or everything we left behind
I tried to pack my bags for nowhere
To leave the memory behind
My compass only points to where you are
And leaves the other roads untwined
[Chorus]
And oh, if gravity should let me fall
I’d find a way to trace the wall
Back to the window where the fire burned
Before the tide of winter turned
If all the stars go dark tonight
I’ll follow you by second sight
We left a fire in the quiet dark
And I am running for the spark
[Bridge]
How many miles of silent weather
Does it take to break a pride?
I’m dropping every shield I carried
And I’m putting down my side
Can you hear me through the static?
Can you feel the shift in air?
I am standing at the threshold
And I'm hoping you are there
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
And oh, if gravity should let me fall
I’d find a way to trace the wall
Back to the window where the fire burned
Before the tide of winter turned
If all the stars go dark tonight
I’ll follow you by second sight
We left a fire in the quiet dark
And I am running for the spark
[Outro]
Just an open door
No more running anymore
In your arms again
Where the light gets in
(Fade out)
