Midnight Currency (versión 2)

Verse

Last taxi cancelled at the door

Someone's phone lit up again on the floor

Every promise is a debt we owe

Paper bag full of half-forgotten dreams

Corner store receipts and last week's schemes

Nobody's counting what it costs to stay

We're already gone by sunrise anyway

Pre-Chorus

So tell me, how much more can one heart hold?

How long before the gold turns cold?

Is this love or is it just a loan?

Chorus

Midnight currency, we spend what we own

Every heartbeat's a debt that we never close

Flying high till the dawn don't arrive

Midnight currency, we pay it back in time

Verse

The rent money gone, the fridge runs dry

Someone's mother called before we caught our eye

But she left her number on my shirt this time

I wrote it slow like I was writing out a rhyme

Six months later and the pen ran dry

She moved again to another city sky

No forwarding address, no final goodbye

Just that one number and the echo in the sigh

Pre-Chorus

So tell me, how much more can one heart hold?

How long before the gold turns cold?

Is this love or is it just a loan?

Chorus

Midnight currency, we spend what we own

Every heartbeat's a debt that we never close

Flying high till the dawn don't arrive

Midnight currency, we pay it back in time

Bridge

Maybe rich isn't measured by the wealth you keep

Maybe gold is just the weight we feel and keep

Maybe love's not something you own or sell

It's a debt that burns down faster than you'll tell

Chorus

Midnight currency, we spend what we own

Every heartbeat's a debt that we never close

Flying high till the dawn don't arrive

Midnight currency, we pay it back in time
