Hold Still Long Enough (Version 2)

Verse

Neon drips down my arm like water off the pier

I'm chasing a feeling I can't quite name

Sunset turns to city lights and fire

Static in the air, we're still not tamed

Your hand finds mine like it was written in gold

Every step is louder than what I've known

Bassline humming through my ribcage bones

We keep this magic from turning cold

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it calling? Is it just the night or something more?

Do we dance till morning, or do we walk right out the door?

Chorus

Hold still long enough for the lights to change

You and me against whatever this town can frame

Hold still long enough for the moment to take shape

This is our one hour in all these stars that hate

Hold still long enough for us to breathe

One beat of time where nothing else exists but we

Hold still long enough till sunrise starts to creep

Then I'll never let you go and never sleep

Verse

I'm a ghost on the radar, you're the pulse I'm chasing

Every shadow moves when you smile, every noise turns sacred

Copper sunbeams on the sidewalk turn to red

You say I am brave enough to lose myself instead

City never sleeps but it will slow down tonight

We keep our eyes fixed on a light that doesn't shine

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it calling? Is it just the night or something more?

Do we dance till morning, or do we walk right out the door?

Chorus

Hold still long enough for the lights to change

You and me against whatever this town can frame

Hold still long enough for the moment to take shape

This is our one hour in all these stars that hate

Hold still long enough for us to breathe

One beat of time where nothing else exists but we

Hold still long enough till sunrise starts to creep

Then I'll never let you go and never sleep

Bridge

Maybe it's just this night, maybe it's something true

But right here right now we're the only ones who knew

So don't pull me back when morning turns your eyes away

Hold my hand through the static till we've earned a brand new day

Chorus

Hold still long enough for the lights to change

You and me against whatever this town can frame

Hold still long enough for the moment to take shape

This is our one hour in all these stars that hate

Hold still long enough for us to breathe

One beat of time where nothing else exists but we

Hold still long enough till sunrise starts to creep

Then I'll never let you go and never sleep
