Lyrics
[Intro]
What was it all about again
I’m trying to remember
Just a flicker at the edge
Of a sleepless December
[Verse 1]
You were tracing maps on my back
Slow circles
Silver lines
Said
“One day we’ll outrun the dark”
We believed our own reply
I keep seeing that pale blue trail
Over roofs of a nameless town
We were laughing at nothing at all
Feet never touching the ground
[Chorus]
Oh yeah
It was about that dream
That sky
That endless journey
We were weightless
We were bright
Racing through the quiet night (oh yeah)
Oh yeah
It was about that dream
Kept your hand in mine
We were learning
How to lose the need to land
Just to fall and understand
[Verse 2]
Now I wake to a ticking room
Neon numbers
Sinking sheets
But the echo of you calling out
Cuts through the steady heartbeat
“Don’t forget what we almost found”
Your voice in the afterglow
Every question I tried to drown
Rises up
Pulling me close
Oh
[Chorus]
Oh yeah
It was about that dream
That sky
That endless journey
We were weightless
We were bright
Racing through the quiet night
Oh yeah
It was about that dream
Kept your hand in mine
[Bridge]
We were learning late
Or were we meant to stay in flight
Was the point to collide
Then disappear into the light
I keep asking the night
But the night just sings your name
Every road that I drive
Curves back to that place
[Chorus]
Oh yeah
It was about that dream
That sky
That endless journey
We were weightless
We were bright
Racing through the quiet night (oh oh)
Oh yeah
It was about that dream
Two blurred souls forever turning
If I never make it back
Leave the stars along our track
[Outro]
What was it all about again
I remember now
I see
It was you
It was that sky
It was the flight that set us free
