Soft Gold Hour 2 (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Your hand curls soft against the seam of the coat

The way it fits your wrist like it was made to stay there

Candlelight cuts long shadows on the floor we've walked in

I can see every detail that I never took the time for

We sit and watch the gold creep up the wall outside

It's slow but steady, no hurry at all

The world is full of clocks, but here it doesn't exist

Just you, me, and this one quiet hour we've decided to invest

Pre-Chorus

Time still keeps its own pace, don't pretend it won't

But in here, we can make a different kind of clock, count the way your fingers move against my palm instead

Chorus

Hold the light where it lands on you

Let this hour breathe and settle slow

No need to fix what's still ahead

Just let the gold hour do its job instead

Soft gold hour, soft gold hour

We'll take our time until it runs out of color

Soft gold hour, soft gold hour

Verse

The streetlamp outside begins to throw a shadow long and thin across your face

I catch myself trying to memorize each line, as if this one was the only hour we'd have left to make up for lost time

Your eyes turn quiet when you see it too — how it climbs the wall, like slow gold dust falling through the air

We don't need a clock to tell us which way is true

I know already what I want from this one quiet view

Not a whole life measured out in minutes and hours, just this single hour's soft light on your face and me next to you

Pre-Chorus

Time still keeps its own pace, don't pretend it won't

But in here, we can make a different kind of clock, count the way your fingers move against my palm instead

Chorus

Hold the light where it lands on you

Let this hour breathe and settle slow

No need to fix what's still ahead

Just let the gold hour do its job instead

Soft gold hour, soft gold hour

We'll take our time until it runs out of color

Soft gold hour, soft gold hour

Bridge

No promises for what comes next

No clock to tick off every step

This is just a single thread of gold that catches in the air

And I'm holding onto it like a promise we can share

Chorus

Hold the light where it lands on you

Let this hour breathe and settle slow

No need to fix what's still ahead

Just let the gold hour do its job instead

Soft gold hour, soft gold hour

We'll take our time until it runs out of color

Soft gold hour, soft gold hour
