Under the light of a thousand long-dead stars
Listening to the echoes of the lonely horns of cars
We were measuring the distance between Jupiter and Mars
And living moments over
All those lonely echoes they're a signal lost in space
Destined to keep moving, never stopping in one place
And always getting weaker with every year they take
To travel through the dark to where you are
Newsreels from the first transmissions
Radios and televisions
Letters to abandoned places
Smiles gone from forgotten faces
Lost light from a supernova
Visions that you don't get over
All the people and the places that you've been
To find our way we have to travel back in time
To carry all those thoughts with us from old and other times
Illuminating steps we take with all that ancient light
Telling us we know which way to go
Yes, you and I we will just fade into the night
Transmitting our vibrations, we'll be creatures made of light
And if I cast a shadow and if it's getting late
I'll travel through the dark to where you are
I'll travel through the dark to where you are
I'll travel through the dark to where you are
