Afterglow – Phantom Tide

Verse

Streetlamp buzzing on the harbor wall

Your hand finds mine before I even fall

Cigarette smoke curling into blue

Every heartbeat matching up with you

Fog rolls soft across the black water line

You say something low and I lose track of time

Ice in my glass but I don't feel the cold

Not with your eyes doing what they do

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the room start spinning slow

Like the whole night's built for us to glow

Something wide is breaking through my chest

Chorus

This is the afterglow

Skin still warm from the words we don't say

Colors bleeding into gray

This is the afterglow

Every light we left still burning gold

Can't let go, don't wanna let go

This is the afterglow

Verse

Bassline pulling through the concrete floor

You lean in closer than you did before

Neon washing purple on your face

Nowhere else I'd rather lose this space

Taxi lights are streaking through the rain

You laugh and it erases every strain

Two a.m. and neither wants to leave

This whole city breathing what we feel

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the room start spinning slow

Like the whole night's built for us to glow

Something wide is breaking through my chest

Chorus

This is the afterglow

Skin still warm from the words we don't say

Colors bleeding into gray

This is the afterglow

Every light we left still burning gold

Can't let go, don't wanna let go

This is the afterglow

Bridge

Maybe it's the bass, maybe it's you

Maybe it's the way the night broke through

I don't need the answer, I just need this proof

That falling feels like flying when it's true

Chorus

This is the afterglow

Skin still warm from the words we don't say

Colors bleeding into gray

This is the afterglow

Every light we left still burning gold

Can't let go, don't wanna let go

This is the afterglow
