Текст песни
Red evening settles on the sand
A silent boat waits by the land
The water holds the copper sky
Two little moons are drifting by
We leave the landing lights behind
The channel draws a silver line
No map can tell us where it ends
There’s only water and your hand
The radio falls still and low
But something underneath us glows
Sail the canals of Mars with me
Past sleeping towers silently
Where every star beneath the tide
Looks like another world inside
Sail the canals of Mars tonight
Through rust-red dusk and twin-moon light
If no one waits beyond the bend
We’ll leave a signal there for them
Stone arches rise above the stream
Blue windows flicker in between
The empty bridges have no roads
The walls remember distant voices
We reach a city carved in red
With silver gardens, cold and dead
A message shines along the quay
“We crossed the dark and hoped you’d see”
No footsteps answer from the shore
But all the lamps ignite once more
Sail the canals of Mars with me
Past sleeping towers silently
Where every star beneath the tide
Looks like another world inside
Sail the canals of Mars tonight
Through rust-red dusk and twin-moon light
If no one waits beyond the bend
We’ll leave a signal there for them
They watched their rivers disappear
They sent their final message here
They built these waterways of stone
So someone else would know their home
Across the years, across the night
Two distant worlds exchange a light
Sail the canals of Mars with me
The silent city starts to breathe
Now every star beneath the tide
Carries their memory through the night
Sail the canals of Mars tonight
Through rust-red dusk and twin-moon light
We know they waited at the bend
So we will send their light again
Across the years
Across the night
