Hold the Skyline 2

Intro

(Hold the skyline)

Keep it open

Verse

Four in the morning, neon dying slow

Fading yellow light along these city streets I know

Windows full of strangers, faces I don't see

But one small lamp keeps burning just for me

Pre-Chorus

(Don't let it go)

Chorus

Hold the skyline open, hold it steady and wide

Keep it shining over all these heads that pass by tonight

I'll walk through every corner till my feet stop moving free

Just watch you keep that light burning where I used to be

Verse

Every taxi pulls away, leaving dust on the curb

Your door stays ajar like a promise yet unfurled

I see it shining brighter with each step down this street

One small ray against all these shadows that repeat

Pre-Chorus

(Don't let it go)

Chorus

Hold the skyline open, hold it steady and wide

Keep it shining over all these heads that pass by tonight

I'll walk through every corner till my feet stop moving free

Just watch you keep that light burning where I used to be

Bridge

It's not a signal for me alone but a beacon in the dark

Light up every soul passing through your doorway, leave your mark

Chorus

Hold the skyline open, hold it steady and wide

Keep it shining over all these heads that pass by tonight

I'll walk through every corner till my feet stop moving free

Just watch you keep that light burning where I used to be
