Dawn Moves Slow (version 3)

Intro

Fan blades cut through the last of the smoke

Ice goes soft in your cup on the ledge

Verse

Curtain lifts on a thread of grey

Floor still warm where the crowd just stood

Your thumb traces the rim, slow drag

Wax pools low where the candle stood

Pre-Chorus

We let the clock lose its hands tonight

We hold the room while it turns to light

Nobody moves for the door too fast

We keep the hush from the hour that's passed

Chorus

Dawn moves slow

Dawn moves slow

Dawn moves slow through this room

Dawn moves slow

Verse

Steam climbs soft off the coffee pot

Your collar damp from the dance we kept

Blinds cut lines on the wall in gold

Neither one of us has slept

Pre-Chorus

We let the clock lose its hands tonight

We hold the room while it turns to light

Nobody moves for the door too fast

We keep the hush from the hour that's passed

Chorus

Dawn moves slow

Dawn moves slow

Dawn moves slow through this room

Dawn moves slow

Bridge

Ice is gone, the glass runs clear

Light gets loud but we stay here

Your palm flat on the window pane

Holding back what comes with day

Chorus

Dawn moves slow

Dawn moves slow

Dawn moves slow through this room

Dawn moves slow

Outro

Fan still turning, slower now

Light gets in, we don't look down
