Ferris Wheel Halo (versión 2)

Verse 1

The sun goes down across the lot

The painted horses turn their heads

Your hands are full of funnel cake wrappers

I find you in the line behind the sign

You're counting up the tickets as the moon comes up

We don't talk, but I know it's going to be alright

The lights on the midway start to turn gold

You keep one hand in your pocket, just a little while

Pre-Chorus

Is this what they mean by living for the light?

Every summer ends right here tonight

Chorus

Ferris wheel halo, spinning round my head

I don't need tomorrow, I'm good with what we got instead

We're locked in amber above the midway lights

Hold on to me, hold on tight

Rise up on these creaking wooden rails

The whole world's just your shadow and the sunset sail

Verse 2

You ask if I've ever been this high before

I say yes, but it was different then.

We walk through smoke and a thousand twinkling lights

Every laugh we catch is trapped in my chest tonight

You lean against the bar when you need some space

And I sit down beside you like we're two separate stars in place

The fireflies come out just as the Ferris wheel starts to slow

I count up all the reasons why this night feels right, and nobody knows

Pre-Chorus

Is this what they mean by living for the light?

Every summer ends right here tonight

Chorus

Ferris wheel halo, spinning round my head

I don't need tomorrow, I'm good with what we got instead

We're locked in amber above the midway lights

Hold on to me, hold on tight

Rise up on these creaking wooden rails

The whole world's just your shadow and the sunset sail

Bridge

Maybe that's enough — maybe it's all we need

Just this one night when the Ferris wheel finally stops moving in my chest

We don't have to be more than where we're standing right now

I'm good with amber, I'm good with this one place and time

Chorus

Ferris wheel halo, spinning round my head

I don't need tomorrow, I'm good with what we got instead

We're locked in amber above the midway lights

Hold on to me, hold on tight

Rise up on these creaking wooden rails

The whole world's just your shadow and the sunset sail
