Gold Between Our Hands (version 2)

Verse

Dust drifts thin in the amber beam

Your palm turns up beneath the seam

Candle low, the wax runs clear

Fingers trace the heat right here

Speaker hums a fading round

Your ring taps soft against the ground

Pre-Chorus

We cup the light before it fades

We hold the warmth the morning made

Nothing moves but what we choose

We keep the gold we're bound to lose

Chorus

Gold between our hands

Gold between our hands

Light won't leave, gold between our hands

Gold between our hands

Verse

Sweat cools slow along your wrist

Smoke unwinds where our fingers twist

Floor still ticking, soft and slow

Your breath falls where the embers glow

Curtain lifts a shade of rose

Morning creeps but no one goes

Pre-Chorus

We cup the light before it fades

We hold the warmth the morning made

Nothing moves but what we choose

We keep the gold we're bound to lose

Chorus

Gold between our hands

Gold between our hands

Light won't leave, gold between our hands

Gold between our hands

Bridge

Bass falls back to just our palms

Skin remembers what it holds

Even gold runs through our hands

Still we keep it, still we hold

Chorus

Gold between our hands

Gold between our hands

Light won't leave, gold between our hands

Gold between our hands
