The Gold in the Sidelight (النسخة 2)

Verse

Palm sweats like it's still morning

Coffee cup in a dust-collected corner

Clock says I've been waiting an hour

Store door swings open, slow

Dime on the counter, counting, showing slow

Every chip and scratch tells me how long this went

But daylight coming, breaking through the glass, somehow

No cash register ringing, just my name in red ink

Pre-Chorus

So don't ask if I'm ready yet

Chorus

This is the gold that runs sideways

Verse

Palm sweats like it's still morning

Coffee cup in a dust-collected corner

Clock says I've been waiting an hour

Store door swings open, slow

Dime on the counter, counting, showing slow

Every chip and scratch tells me how long this went

But daylight coming, breaking through the glass, somehow

No cash register ringing, just my name in red ink

Pre-Chorus

So don't ask if I'm ready yet

Chorus

This is the gold that runs sideways

Bridge

Maybe it's not gold at all
