Red Shift
I wonder whether you'd still recognize me after all this time.

About the song
I can feel close to someone and still sense the years gathering between us. There's so much I'd want them to know, and no easy place to begin. More than anything, I hope we haven't become too distant to find each other.
Red Shift lyrics
Sometimes I measure time in distance
Sometimes I want to break the clock
Every year adds space between us
All the waves are growing soft
I feel the peaks getting warmer
The hue shifting away from blue
A journey into the darkness
Traveling to get to you
Watch me as I red shift
Look before I fade out of view
I was fast but now my color’s fading
Light is history creating
A record that we know is true
Watch me as I red shift
Red shift
Red shift
I’m leaving optic fingerprints
Around me everywhere
Nothing ever is forgotten
We just don’t stay aware
The universe remembers it
Even when we can’t decipher it
Every choice, every word
Every dream deferred
Watch me as I red shift
Look before I fade out of view
I was fast but now my color’s fading
Light is history creating
A record that we know is true
Watch me as I red shift
Red shift
Red shift
I was bright enough to find you
Now I hum below your view
If you miss me, don’t call it dying
Call it light outgrowing you
Watch me as I red shift
Nothing lost, just stretched too wide
Every moment ever living
Still survives the other side
Watch me as I red shift
If you miss me when I’m gone
You just learned how time expands
Watch me as I red shift
Red shift
Red shift
Red shift
Red shift
