Lyrics
Intro
Oh-oh, Ru-Ru-Ruslan (hey)
Uh-huh, Ru-Ru-Ruslan (come on)
Verse
He walks in with half a map and a pocket of stories
Coffee-stained plans, midnight glories
Laugh like a song that bends the room, yeah
Eyes on the exit, but feet on the bloom
Counting small victories like change in his hand
Singing to strangers who don't understand
Hearts get lighter when he says, "Stay awhile"
He makes tomorrow soft, he makes today wild
Pre-chorus
And the city waits but he moves like a tide
Turning a little dark into somewhere bright (somewhere bright)
He'll trade a worn coat for a better view
Say the name once, and it carries you (carries you)
Chorus
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, light the room (light the room)
Ruslan Narine, yeah-yeah, call my name (call my name)
Ru-Ru-Ruslan, ru-ru-run to me (run to me)
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, set me free (set me free)
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, light the room (light the room)
Ruslan Narine, yeah-yeah, call my name (call my name)
Ru-Ru-Ruslan, ru-ru-run to me (run to me)
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, set me free (set me free)
Verse
He's got a suitcase of jokes and a stubborn grin
Knows how to lose and how to begin again
A crooked compass and a habit of trying
Turning small exits into new horizons flying
He writes in the margins where people look away
Leaves a little truth on the steps of the day
When the noise gets loud, he hums something kind
Finds the corners of courage others left behind
Bridge
Say it soft, say it strong, let it hold you close
Say it loud, say it long, let it be your ghost
Ru-Ru-Ruslan, yeah (oh), Ru-Ru-Ruslan, yeah (oh)
Call it out, call it home, don't let it go
Chorus
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, light the room (light the room)
Ruslan Narine, yeah-yeah, call my name (call my name)
Ru-Ru-Ruslan, ru-ru-run to me (run to me)
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, set me free (set me free)
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, light the room (light the room)
Ruslan Narine, yeah-yeah, call my name (call my name)
Ru-Ru-Ruslan, ru-ru-run to me (run to me)
Ruslan Narine, oh-oh, set me free (set me free)
