Fading Light and Copper Wire (version 2)

Verse

Bare feet on the copper grate where we first found our way

Your smile against the sunset, and I knew right then it stayed

Neon bleeding pink across your collarbone

Every shadow in this room turned into gold for me alone

Pre-Chorus

Is it fading fast like we do?

Or does it just glow different when the sun is through?

Tell me now before we lose the light

I need to know if we're holding onto what's still alive

Chorus

Fading light, copper wire, this is our place in time

We are the sparks that never fade out of my mind

Every night, every breath, I'm chasing down your shine

Fading light, copper wire, let this be our final line

Verse 2

Four a.m. and the whole room's turned to gold

You're laughing where the windows used to fold

I caught your hand in the static glow

This is how we turn it into an endless road

Pre-Chorus

Is it fading fast like we do?

Or does it just glow different when the sun is through?

Tell me now before we lose the light

I need to know if we're holding onto what's still alive

Chorus

Fading light, copper wire, this is our place in time

We are the sparks that never fade out of my mind

Every night, every breath, I'm chasing down your shine

Fading light, copper wire, let this be our final line

Bridge

It's not fading, it just rearranges

We're turning into something new today

No more questions, no more time to hold on tight

This is where we become one single ray of light

Chorus

Fading light, copper wire, this is our place in time

We are the sparks that never fade out of my mind

Every night, every breath, I'm chasing down your shine

Fading light, copper wire, let this be our final line
