Hum - Desert Rambler

Halcyon days long wasted, departing our shores
A respite from thought that was useless and I get no more
A window to you that is narrowed and not yet shut
A trip through a sickening distance that I need so much

As we dream of our descent upon the surface
I see settlement fires
Gift of water that we carry
Lies in slumber under magnifiers

Where is the rescue?
It didn't show
Where is the bottom?
I wouldn't know
I missed you so

As we brake for our descent upon the surface
I see settlement fires
This start we carry for your oceans
Lies in waiting under magnifiers

You can't know the hours that kept me awake
Awake with the start and the instruments say I've come so far
A stag and a doe and a surface here are being lost
Hope wasn't here, but it slept in the seeds of a lone dust
Do you feel loved?
