Held in amber, we stay where we are 2 (έκδοση 2)

Verse 1

Last light fading through the blinds

You sit beside me on the arm of this worn chair

I know you're leaving in a few short hours

But your thumb keeps tracing circles in my hair

Every inch I try to pull away

Your hand finds another place to settle

Like we've been doing this for years and years

Not counting how many minutes left to spend

Your voice goes quiet when the clock strikes five

Pre-Chorus

So tell me, do you feel it too?

This thing that refuses to slow down

Every second keeps becoming a lifetime

Are we chasing what's already here?

Or just running out of time before this moment ends?

I want to hold on till the last warm light is gone

Chorus

Held in amber, we stay where we are

Not counting seconds anymore tonight

Every minute is slow enough for us two

Lost in every breath and all its heat

Held in amber, suspended like this

No need for clocks when every tick feels right

We don't have a reason to run or hide

Just the feeling that time just turned into gold

And I want it to stay right here tonight

Verse 2

You're watching stars come up behind the trees

Your fingers still tracing paths across my neck

I keep trying to count down the minutes left

But they just stretch longer than any clock can reach

Your eyes go soft like the last sun's rays on stone

Every line I draw between us disappears

Your hand finds a new way to settle in close

Like this room was made for two and only two

And we're the ones who finally learned how to slow down

Not chasing anything that's already here with me

Pre-Chorus

So tell me, do you feel it too?

This thing that refuses to slow down

Every second keeps becoming a lifetime

Are we chasing what's already here?

Or just running out of time before this moment ends?

I want to hold on till the last warm light is gone

Chorus

Held in amber, we stay where we are

Not counting seconds anymore tonight

Every minute is slow enough for us two

Lost in every breath and all its heat

Held in amber, suspended like this

No need for clocks when every tick feels right

We don't have a reason to run or hide

Just the feeling that time just turned into gold

And I want it to stay right here tonight

Bridge

Maybe 'slow' isn't something you find

But maybe it's what you let in instead

Not counting every single second, then

But holding onto all of them instead

Chorus

Held in amber, we stay where we are

Not counting seconds anymore tonight

Every minute is slow enough for us two

Lost in every breath and all its heat

Held in amber, suspended like this

No need for clocks when every tick feels right

We don't have a reason to run or hide

Just the feeling that time just turned into gold

And I want it to stay right here tonight
