Burn in the Gold Light (Version 2)

Verse

Salt on my collarbone where the speaker stands

Every heartbeat answers a drum in the sand

Four in the morning, shadows on the wall

Your hand finds mine through the smoke and the fall

Coral sun creeping over the roofline sky

Bassline still humming low under our feet, we won't ask why

Palms up to the ceiling, the gold light breaks through

This is the only moment that feels brand new

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, catching in my chest

Nothing but heat and the beat we can't forget

Chorus

Burn in the gold light, slow on the floor

Bodies moving like they've never been tired before

We don't need reason, just this glow and this sound

Burn in the gold light till we lose the ground

Verse 2

Speakers humming low where our hips touch skin

Strangers turn to family under gold and red spin

Nobody checks watches when every drum lands right

This is the moment that erases the night

Smoke machine drifting through an open door

Every pair of feet moving like they know for sure

Hands up catching sunbeams, shadows run thin

We're burning what's left so we can start again

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising, catching in my chest

Nothing but heat and the beat we can't forget

Chorus

Burn in the gold light, slow on the floor

Bodies moving like they've never been tired before

We don't need reason, just this glow and this sound

Burn in the gold light till we lose the ground

Bridge

Not a song we remember later

Just a pulse that won't quit now, no matter the weather

So let it climb up past your collarbone

Let it stay here long after we're gone

Chorus

Burn in the gold light, slow on the floor

Bodies moving like they've never been tired before

We don't need reason, just this glow and this sound

Burn in the gold light till we lose the ground
