Gold Before We Go (version 2)

Verse 1

Copper light through the alley way

Last train out but I won't go home today

Your shoulder leans where the shadow falls

The city holds its breath till it calls

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the low end start to bend?

Something's coming that we can't hold back again

Every window turning amber gold

Nobody's ready for this night to fold

Chorus

Gold before we go, we're burning slow

Hands up where the rooftops glow

Nothing left but what the sun will know

We keep dancing 'til the gold turns low

Verse 2

Taxi horns fade into a song we know

Your pulse against my collarbone to hold on tight

The sky forgets it was ever black at all

Nowhere else I'd rather lose myself now than this hall

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the low end start to bend?

Something's coming that we can't hold back again

Every window turning amber gold

Nobody's ready for this night to fold

Chorus

Gold before we go, we're burning slow

Hands up where the rooftops glow

Nothing left but what the sun will know

We keep dancing 'til the gold turns low

Bridge

I don't wanna miss a single ray on your face

Every door in this block turns into one place

This is ours alone till the dark comes back again

No clock, no reason why we gotta stop at nine

Chorus

Gold before we go, we're burning slow

Hands up where the rooftops glow

Nothing left but what the sun will know

We keep dancing 'til the gold turns low
