Sky is Not Ours Yet (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse 1 – female alto

Paint peeled off the wall where I learned to draw

Chalk dust in my palm, still holding the line

Grandfather's old watch stopped on a Tuesday night

Daddy said it kept perfect time when he was mine

Pre-chorus

So tell me why this room stayed still so long

Why your laughter is louder than anything I've sung

Is it because we waited for the dark to move

Or were you holding onto something that won't leave

Chorus – male light baritone and female alto duet

We let the clock go, we let the clock go

Sky is not ours yet so we're moving slow

We keep the spark inside a lantern flame

And we don't need to count down till we're the same

Verse 2 – female alto

Your hand slipped into mine on a stairwell rail

The wind outside was breathing in the same tone

Every second felt like an extra beat

Because I didn't want that moment gone

Pre-chorus

So tell me why this room stayed still so long

Why your laughter is louder than anything I've sung

Is it because we waited for the dark to move

Or were you holding onto something that won't leave

Chorus – male light baritone and female alto duet

We let the clock go, we let the clock go

Sky is not ours yet so we're moving slow

We keep the spark inside a lantern flame

And we don't need to count down till we're the same

Bridge – male light baritone solo

Maybe time's just waiting on us too

Maybe it wants us to stay with this glow, with you

No schedule for the open road

Just the weight of our two hearts in tow

Chorus – full band and vocal trade lines

We let the clock go, we let the clock go

Sky is not ours yet so we're moving slow

We keep the spark inside a lantern flame

And we don't need to count down till we're the same

Outro – female alto

We kept the light in our hands

Now we can see that it was planned
