Copper Sky on Empty Pages

Verse

Faded Polaroid stuck to the dashboard

Radio crackling static, your laugh in the silence

Barefoot on a vinyl floor board

Counting stars through the screen door

Your hand on my knee as we swayed

Summer air and nothing said

Pre-Chorus

Do you remember how long it was

Before this whole wide world found us

Before every name was spoken

We were just two voices under one tune

Chorus

So let the fireflies burn out

Let the porch swing fade away

I'm not ready to lose this feeling yet

We're chasing the copper sky on empty pages tonight

Verse

Rain boots by the back door step

Saltwater drying on your collarbone

We built a sandcastle that the tide took home

Left our names in driftwood, half-forgotten now

But holding on was never how it's done

You said we'd always be this young

Pre-Chorus

Do you remember how long it was

Before this whole wide world found us

Before every name was spoken

We were just two voices under one tune

Chorus

So let the fireflies burn out

Let the porch swing fade away

I'm not ready to lose this feeling yet

We're chasing the copper sky on empty pages tonight

Bridge

Maybe it's supposed to turn into dust eventually

But I'll carry every second of this as gold

Not a memory, but the shape it made in my chest

A map that never had to be written down

Chorus

So let the fireflies burn out

Let the porch swing fade away

I'm not ready to lose this feeling yet

We're chasing the copper sky on empty pages tonight
