Skyline Fades at Dawn (Version 2)

Intro

Steam off the window, floor still buzzing

Verse 1 – male vocal

Last taxi left before sunrise

Headlights flicker on empty streets

Bass is low now, speakers cooling

Your hand finds mine through the heat

City's waking up outside us

Dust off the shoulders we wore

Pre-Chorus

Hold onto this feeling longer

Something in me doesn't want to go back yet

Chorus – female vocal, ethereal androgynous voice

Skyline fades at dawn

We don't have to let it fall

Lights are coming through the blinds

Nothing can catch us now

Fading light on your face

Same four walls, new frame

Verse 2 – male vocal

Sweat is drying slow down my back

Your breathing slows to mine

City's stirring out in the haze

We don't move from this line

Curtains rattle with each passing car

Engine hum keeps us still

Nothing here is leaving us now

Every moment makes it real

Pre-Chorus

Hold onto this feeling longer

Something in me doesn't want to go back yet

Chorus – female vocal, ethereal androgynous voice

Skyline fades at dawn

We don't have to let it fall

Lights are coming through the blinds

Nothing can catch us now

Fading light on your face

Same four walls, new frame

Bridge – male and female together

Not yet. Not ever.

Just a little longer.

Let this last breath live.

This is how we start.
