Sunset on the Water 3 (versione 2)

Verse 1

Cracked open on the hood of my car

Dust in the air like it's been here since the start

Neon pink and a half-empty Coke bottle on the backseat

I've got your sweatshirt wrapped around my shoulders where I can feel

Your laughter in every bend, in every yellow light

We chased the setting sun down 12 blocks of gravel tonight

And now it’s just us, alone with the stars we don’t name

Every single window on the whole block is painted white

But I still see your smile like a flashlight shining through

Pre-Chorus

So tell me how long till you come back again

Tell me if this feeling stays

Am I holding onto something that's already thin

Or is it here to stay

Chorus

I'm caught in the blue and it won't let go

Dusty sunset, dusty heart beating slow

Gold hour running like we used to run

Every single window painted white but you are not leaving now

We're holding every second like a door we can't close

Sunset on the water, sunset on our skin

Verse 2

Salt in my hair, salt on your collarbone

A whole row of empty houses humming with our song

There’s one porch swing that creaks just right where you used to sit

I still climb up there and wait for a shadow

Bass is bleeding down the alleyway like it's bleeding from me

And I don’t care because we’re burning off the static in the air

Every star that twinkles looks like something you made

In your laughter, in the way you keep coming back

I think maybe the whole world’s been painted white just so we can see every color we ever knew

Pre-Chorus

So tell me how long till you come back again

Tell me if this feeling stays

Am I holding onto something that's already thin

Or is it here to stay

Chorus

I'm caught in the blue and it won't let go

Dusty sunset, dusty heart beating slow

Gold hour running like we used to run

Every single window painted white but you are not leaving now

We're holding every second like a door we can't close

Sunset on the water, sunset on our skin

Bridge

I don’t know if it’s forever or just one summer

But I think maybe that's alright

Maybe what’s real isn’t the hours in the calendar

Maybe it’s just the way you look at me tonight

So let the whole world turn to white

Let us keep on burning like this

Chorus

I'm caught in the blue and it won't let go

Dusty sunset, dusty heart beating slow

Gold hour running like we used to run

Every single window painted white but you are not leaving now

We're holding every second like a door we can't close

Sunset on the water, sunset on our skin
