Still the Same Sky

[Intro: fingerpicked acoustic guitar, slow and warm, no vocals] [Verse 1: very soft voice, almost speaking, telling a story] That summer We gathered around the table Sat outside Telling jokes, telling stories [Verse 2: soft voice, steady and calm] That summer We climbed up onto the roof Looked up And there was the sky Moonlight poured down Falling on every one of us Like a thin coat of silver [Verse 3: soft voice, strings entering quietly behind] Back then We studied the stars above us Someone slowly closed their eyes One by one We all fell asleep [Chorus: voice stays soft and even, strings swell gently, no louder singing] Now So many summers have passed But that summer Feels so far away So far that only moonlight Still rests on my shoulder [Bridge: piano only, very quiet, voice almost wondering] Maybe one day We'll gather here again Just like before Maybe it's just a fantasy Do I believe We can gather there [Final Chorus: guitar rhythm grows, strings full and warm, voice still soft] That same yard That same sky We still us [Outro: fingerpicked guitar fading, soft humming, keep the same gentle melody] We're still there Gather there Gather there
