Hold The Night Down (Version 2)

Intro

Hold the night down

Verse

Shoes in hand on cold tile floor

Last chord of the four a.m. score

Streetlights turn to amber gold

Nobody's ready for the day to unfold

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the ceiling bend?

Something inside is breaking free

No more hands up in the air tonight

Let it take us where we need to be

Chorus

Hold the night down, hold it tight

Bodies glowing in a warm white light

Nothing else can ever be as true

As this one moment, locked with you

Hold the night down, let it stay

Hold the night down, don't drive it away

Verse

Cigarette smoke curls into steam

Strangers' shadows merge into a dream

Floor still shaking beneath our feet

One last hour to hold on tight and keep

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the ceiling bend?

Something inside is breaking free

No more hands up in the air tonight

Let it take us where we need to be

Chorus

Hold the night down, hold it tight

Bodies glowing in a warm white light

Nothing else can ever be as true

As this one moment, locked with you

Hold the night down, let it stay

Hold the night down, don't drive it away

Bridge

No names tonight, no time to keep

Just this pulse and this endless sweep

Let go of everything we know

Only the music takes us home

Chorus

Hold the night down, hold it tight

Bodies glowing in a warm white light

Nothing else can ever be as true

As this one moment, locked with you

Hold the night down, let it stay

Hold the night down, don't drive it away
