Still Here, Still Gold

Verse

Dust on my ankles, gravel road hum

Sun climbing ladders till the whole sky's done

Cracked open peaches drip down my wrist

Nineteen and golden, we don't miss a thing like this

Chevy windows down, the radio wide

Sunflowers taller than the fences we ride

Every field we pass is a stage we own

Bare feet on the hood, we're never alone

Pre-Chorus

So tell me who says summer fades

Who says gold don't stay

We're standing in the heat of it

Burning bright as day

Chorus

We're still here, still gold

Wild hearts, sunburnt and bold

Every hour's a firefly

Caught but never told to go

Still here, still gold

Verse

Lake water green with the moon coming up

Skip stones like promises, fill up the cup

Campfire sparks writing names in the air

Nobody's leaving, nobody's scared

Tailgate kingdom under a string of stars

Engine still ticking from how far we've come this far

Cicadas keep time like they know our song

This is the summer that keeps going on

Pre-Chorus

So tell me who says summer fades

Who says gold don't stay

We're standing in the heat of it

Burning bright as day

Chorus

We're still here, still gold

Wild hearts, sunburnt and bold

Every hour's a firefly

Caught but never told to go

Still here, still gold

Bridge

Years from now when the frost comes creeping

I'll still feel this heat I'm keeping

Not the season that we're chasing

It's the fire we're both raising

Chorus

We're still here, still gold

Wild hearts, sunburnt and bold

Every hour's a firefly

Caught but never told to go

Still here, still gold

Still here, still gold
