Hold on through the noise (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Bare feet on the counter, a single tea bag steeping

The sign out in the window says 'open when you're ready

I'm folding my apron slow, the way the fluorescent flickers

You're locking up the till and counting out your hours

I know we said it's nothing, just a job that got between us

But every time I step outside into the orange haze, I'm thinking of you now

Pre-Chorus

So don't turn off the lights just yet, not quite yet

Tell me what this means to you and let the night settle in our heads

Chorus

Hold on through the noise, hold on till it's time to go

Don't let the neon bleed into the dark outside, no

Catch my arm before I leave, don't watch me walk away

Hold on through the noise like this is all we'll ever need

Verse

The stockroom smells of paper and your favorite coffee blend

I'm still wearing your name tag, even though it's over now

You're humming in the parking lot where the sun always starts to set

And I know that every day without you will be a little less than this

We never talked about forever, just today at best

But with the engine running cold and the windows rolled up tight, I wish we had a map for how to keep this light

Pre-Chorus

So don't turn off the lights just yet, not quite yet

Tell me what this means to you and let the night settle in our heads

Chorus

Hold on through the noise, hold on till it's time to go

Don't let the neon bleed into the dark outside, no

Catch my arm before I leave, don't watch me walk away

Hold on through the noise like this is all we'll ever need

Bridge

Maybe it starts with just one more minute

Not a promise but a pulse that still exists

Keep your hands in yours, keep your eyes locked on mine

Let tonight decide if love will be what remains

Chorus

Hold on through the noise, hold on till it's time to go

Don't let the neon bleed into the dark outside, no

Catch my arm before I leave, don't watch me walk away

Hold on through the noise like this is all we'll ever need
