Time Capsule

Time Capsule

[Verse]
Raindrops painting the glass with the hands of time
Your laughter lingering in the seventh twilight
Unfinished fingerprints on the sweaters in the window display
Migratory birds carrying away the last vestige of warmth

[Pre-Chorus]
The clouds part to reveal cracks of stardust
You say it's just the clock taking a nap
An old cassette tape spinning out minty echoes
Breaths dispersing into dandelion journeys

[Chorus]
Eternal light sleeps on the dark side of the moon
You unwrap the galaxy's candy wrapper, falling on your left shoulder
The clock at the bus stop sprouts everlasting vines
We count the seconds, playing hopscotch to eternity

[Verse 2]
Clothesline holding onto faded kites
The spring you planted scaling the neighbor's eaves
The radio humming last year's snowman
Frost blossoming into crystal cities on your lashes

[Bridge]
An elevator carrying shooting stars ascends
Fingerprints sprouting along the coffee cup rim
You simply transfer on the light's cable
Folding shadows into paper boats to set free

[Outro]
In the morning mist, someone pushes the pause button
The umbrella you left behind spirals in the clear sky
