Two Hearts to Blame

[Intro|Low Energy|Piano] I found your name in a box of old things Dust on the lid, years on the hinge Someone once wrote what I feel right now Different age, same vow somehow [Verse 1|Medium Energy|Piano|Bass Guitar] They waited weeks just to send a word Ink on a page, every line rehearsed I tap a screen and it leaves my hand Still hoping you will understand You said the night felt quiet without me I read it twice just to let it breathe It’s strange how time keeps the same design Two hearts reaching across a line [Pre-Chorus|Building Energy] Maybe love never changed its way Just the tools that we use today [Chorus|High Energy|Synthesizer|Drums] If I lived back then I’d carve your name in stone Carry every word across the road back home Now it’s typing dots lighting up my phone But the feeling stays the same Across the years, across the miles we roam Every era writes the same old poem Clay or glass, ink or text alone Still the same two hearts to blame [Verse 2|Medium Energy|Electric Piano|Bass Guitar] Somebody waited by a shoreline once Reading the sky for a sign to come I watch the train doors slide apart Wondering if you’ll step out first History folded inside our hands Stories repeating in smaller plans Every century tries again Same soft promise between two friends (Stay) I whisper low to the empty seat (Hey) your name still sounds like home to me [Chorus|Explosive Energy|Synthesizer|Drums] If I lived back then I’d carve your name in stone Carry every word across the road back home Now it’s typing dots lighting up my phone But the feeling stays the same Across the years, across the miles we roam Every era writes the same old poem Clay or glass, ink or text alone Still the same two hearts to blame [Bridge|Breakdown|Piano] A hand once pressed a sign in clay Hoping someone would read someday Now my message leaves tonight Riding signals made of light Different tools but the truth survives Love keeps learning new ways to arrive [Chorus|High Energy|Full Band] If I lived back then I’d carve your name in stone Carry every word across the road back home Now it’s typing dots lighting up my phone But the feeling stays the same Across the years, across the miles we roam Every era writes the same old poem Clay or glass, ink or text alone Still the same two hearts to blame [Outro|Ring Out|Piano] If tomorrow turns these words to dust Another age will still write us Someone waiting, someone near Someone wishing you were here
