"Telescope" lyrics

"Telescope"

Sometimes I look around and wonder why
We are here, you wrapped in life
And if there's others if there ever was
Peering back, high above
And if

They tried to capture you in light
Reflecting mirrors in the night
They tried to reach you through a telescope
But they'll never really know
The glimmer from the gold

Somewhere in sleeping towns I shine the way
Where it leads, none can say
Into infinity will we always grow?
Where it stops, no one knows but

Don't try to capture all the light
Reflecting mirrors in the night
They try to lead you through a telescope
But they'll never really know
All that there is to hold
Oh

I'll be a passenger of light
Reflecting craters in the night
They'll look beyond you through a telescope
But they'll never really know
The miracle of home
Oh
