Gold in the Static 3

Verse

Static on the radio finds my hand

Channel hopping through a stranger's station

I catch a fragment of your laughter first

Then the whole block goes into silence

Somebody's saxophone drifts out an open window

Cuts across the traffic and the trees

I know it's you before I see your face

This whole city was always meant to be free

Pre-Chorus

So what if we're just a ghost signal

Holding on for one more mile?

So what if this is all we get

We'll still keep dancing, till the lights come up

Chorus

Gold in the static, gold in the noise

I hear your name in every open choice

Hold on tight, let go at the same time

This city's ours for one more shine

Gold in the static, nothing else tonight

We'll ride this frequency until it breaks into light

Verse

Dusk turns orange then it turns to violet

Streetlights start blinking like a code we wrote

I see you on a corner bus stop bench

Counting down the hours till the night is done

Your jacket's zipped but your smile says summer

Traffic lights are strobes across your skin

Somebody's playing trumpet out their window again

And for one second, it feels like we're home

Pre-Chorus

So what if we're just a ghost signal

Holding on for one more mile?

So what if this is all we get

We'll still keep dancing, till the lights come up

Chorus

Gold in the static, gold in the noise

I hear your name in every open choice

Hold on tight, let go at the same time

This city's ours for one more shine

Gold in the static, nothing else tonight

We'll ride this frequency until it breaks into light

Bridge

Maybe I don't need a name to know you

Maybe this is all that we were built for

Signal or silhouette, it's still you moving through me

One more hour of this golden blur

Chorus

Gold in the static, gold in the noise

I hear your name in every open choice

Hold on tight, let go at the same time

This city's ours for one more shine

Gold in the static, nothing else tonight

We'll ride this frequency until it breaks into light
