Sundial Swell

Intro

Pulse in the palms

Skin against sky

Verse

Fragile fingers tracing a line on my wrist

Gold light crawling up the walls like a slow kiss

Every shadow is stretching across the floor

You count every heartbeat as if we'll never sleep again here

Your hand finds mine, and I feel it pulling me forward

Into the room where shadows take shape in the morning

Pre-Chorus

Watch how time folds, bending and folding around us

Feel the clock forgets what hour this is

Hold still for just one second, let the dark hold its breath

And maybe, maybe we'll leave our whole selves here

Together, suspended in a single moment

Held together by the same gentle, floating movement

Chorus

We're caught on the sundial swell

Dancing on the edge of yesterday's sky

Every breath that we breathe is breaking apart

Leaving nothing but gold and where we used to be

Sundial sweep us up, carry us across it

Watch our shadows lose shape against the light

Verse

Your collarbone glows amber through the gray veil

City breathing slow like a sleeping animal

Every windowpane reflects our faces two

The room is wide open but I don't see a door to leave

You keep counting those breaths as if each one's precious

I'm trying not to look down and lose myself in the floor

Pre-Chorus

Watch how time folds, bending and folding around us

Feel the clock forgets what hour this is

Hold still for just one second, let the dark hold its breath

And maybe, maybe we'll leave our whole selves here

Together, suspended in a single moment

Held together by the same gentle, floating movement

Chorus

We're caught on the sundial swell

Dancing on the edge of yesterday's sky

Every breath that we breathe is breaking apart

Leaving nothing but gold and where we used to be

Sundial sweep us up, carry us across it

Watch our shadows lose shape against the light

Bridge

Hold still for this one second, just you, me, the light

Don't look down at the floor and don't think about tonight

Just breathe with every pulse of gold

Let everything else fall away from my bones

Chorus

We're caught on the sundial swell

Dancing on the edge of yesterday's sky

Every breath that we breathe is breaking apart

Leaving nothing but gold and where we used to be

Sundial sweep us up, carry us across it

Watch our shadows lose shape against the light
