歌詞

Breath clouds fade on the window glass

Winter hums on the telephone wires

Street below is buried white

Footsteps vanish out of sight

Orange halos on the road

Blink and then are swallowed whole

Hands inside these empty sleeves

Trace the shape of what we believed

Every promise that we broke

Hangs like frost along the smoke

I can hear the distant air

Buzzing through the midnight glow

Like a broken TV screen

Filling up with falling snow

Heartbeats in the static snow

Still you echo underneath the cold

Every signal lost between

Who we were and what we mean

If I close my eyes and let it go

I can hear our heartbeats in the static snow

Coffee cools beside the bed

Unread letters in my head

Words I typed and never sent

Melt into the firmament

Frozen branches blur the sky

Patterns drift and then align

All the winters that we shared

Flicker in the streetlight glare

I can feel the distance crack

Underneath the weight we chose

In the quiet, in the hush

Something living still unfolds

Heartbeats in the static snow

Still we echo underneath the cold

Every signal lost between

Who we were and what we mean

If I let the midnight overflow

I can feel our heartbeats in the static snow

Spring will loosen all these seams

Turn the drifts into a stream

We might never be the same

But we’ll move and that’s still change

In the mirror by the door

I don’t wait for you no more

But I carry what we were

Like a pulse beneath the blur

If I walk into the light

Let the old white quiet go

I will keep the part that beats

Underneath the frozen glow

Heartbeats in the static snow

Not a ghost, but proof that we still grow

Every signal lost between

Who we were and what we’ll be

When the sky turns black and streets turn gold

I will hear our heartbeats in the static snow

Breath clouds fade and the night lets go

But I keep our heartbeats in the static snow
