Afterglow on the Water (version 2)

Verse

Grey water, diesel glow

Ferry lights cross the bay

Bassline humming under the tide

Feet still on the dance floor sway

Your shoulder brushing mine

Nobody's looking back for us tonight

Sirens fade into the low end hum

City breathing through the harbour drum

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it pulling in

The dark turning soft and thin?

Hands up to the open sky

We ride this wave until it dies

Chorus

Afterglow on the water

Salt air, skin like glass

Riding out the fading music

Nothing left but us at last

Afterglow on the water

Gold light breaking through the grey

We keep moving till the harbour lights come up

This is where we disappear tonight

Verse 2

Palm trees swaying in a window frame

Empty seats, just your hand and mine

Tide comes in while the sub drops down

City waking up in time

Your voice cuts through the engine roar

Nothing here that I need to hide

Just this water and the beat we brought with us

Drowning slow beneath the tide

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it pulling in

The dark turning soft and thin?

Hands up to the open sky

We ride this wave until it dies

Chorus

Afterglow on the water

Salt air, skin like glass

Riding out the fading music

Nothing left but us at last

Afterglow on the water

Gold light breaking through the grey

We keep moving till the harbour lights come up

This is where we disappear tonight

Bridge

No names here
