Hold Your Hold on Me 2 (version 2)

Verse

Lace on your collarbone where the morning light falls

Coffee's still dripping slow from the cup you let me hold

The radio hums static like it knows what we're chasing

Every shadow outside is a door I don't need to open

Your hand finds mine in the dark and holds just right

Barely audible in the traffic, a quiet little fight

I know this isn't over, not with you still breathing

But maybe that's exactly what makes it all so free-ing

Pre-Chorus

So don't tell me goodbye when I'm still standing here

Watch my pulse keep climbing up against your ear

Chorus

Hold on to the heat we left in the glass

Hold onto something that this never had to pass

I won't let you go until it all comes undone

Hold your hold on me, watch us drive into the sun

Verse

Sunrise painting red on the wet asphalt glow

Your hair's tangled across my shoulder where the sweat has made it go

The engine purrs in low gear like a slow-burning fire

I know that we've been here before but I still can't put out what we're hiring

You say this isn't forever, that it never was

But every mile we drive away from all of this

I feel something turning over where my chest used to ache

And for the first time in a long while, it feels like it might actually break

Pre-Chorus

So don't tell me goodbye when I'm still standing here

Watch my pulse keep climbing up against your ear

Chorus

Hold on to the heat we left in the glass

Hold onto something that this never had to pass

I won't let you go until it all comes undone

Hold your hold on me, watch us drive into the sun

Bridge

Maybe endings are just doors with hinges of gold

And maybe leaving means staying right where I'm told

You don't have to prove a thing or show me who you're not

Just give me that one last hour, and let this burn what we've got

Chorus

Hold on to the heat we left in the glass

Hold onto something that this never had to pass

I won't let you go until it all comes undone

Hold your hold on me, watch us drive into the sun
