Copper Light Falling (version 2)

Verse

Last of the smoke curls up through the beam

Light finds the slats, cuts gold through the seam

Room thins out, but we don't move yet

Copper on skin where the sun and the sweat met

Shadows slide back as the speakers go quiet

Your collarbone catches the first hour's light

Nobody's leaving before we do

Floor holds the hum of the song we knew

Pre-Chorus

Is it the light or the way you stay

Do you feel it climb as the dark gives way

Chorus

Copper light falling, slow on your skin

Copper light falling, right where we've been

Hands stay low, but the heat still shows

Copper light falling, nobody goes

Verse

Chairs come up, but the bar stays dim

One lamp humming, low and thin

Your shadow leans where the counter ends

Close enough that the quiet bends

Dust in the beam like it's dancing slow

Nothing's said, but we both just know

The night let go, but the warmth still stays

Painted soft in the copper haze

Pre-Chorus

Is it the light or the way you stay

Do you feel it climb as the dark gives way

Chorus

Copper light falling, slow on your skin

Copper light falling, right where we've been

Hands stay low, but the heat still shows

Copper light falling, nobody goes

Bridge

Maybe it's not the dark we need

Maybe it's this, the light, the seam

Doors unlocked, but neither moves

Morning waits while the copper glows

Chorus

Copper light falling, slow on your skin

Copper light falling, right where we've been

Hands stay low, but the heat still shows

Copper light falling, nobody goes
