Lyrics
[verse]
Lights are flickering high above the trees tonight
Something's pulling at the edges of my sight
Tell me, does the river know which way it's meant to flow
Or does it just keep moving 'cause it's all it's ever known
[chorus]
And I'm asking, how fast does the wonder travel
How far till the answer starts to unravel
Is it further than the stars, is it closer than my skin
Racing at the speed of sound within
[verse]
I've been counting all the signals in the dark
Waiting for a compass or a spark
Maybe I'm not lost, maybe I'm just early
For a door that hasn't opened yet, nearly
[chorus]
And I'm asking, how fast does the wonder travel
How far till the answer starts to unravel
Is it further than the stars, is it closer than my skin
Racing at the speed of sound within
[bridge]
Every heartbeat is a question mark
Every silence hides a little spark
I don't need to know the whole of where I'm bound
Just to keep on chasing that sound
[chorus]
And I'm asking, how fast does the wonder travel
How far till the answer starts to unravel
Is it further than the stars, is it closer than my skin
Racing at the speed of sound within
