Gold in the Dust (versione 2)

Verse

Six a.m., your shadow stretching long across the gravel road

You're singing that old hymn we found on Spotify, off-key but loud

Salt still drying from last night's rain, dust kicking up in our tires

Fog line hanging low over the fields like it ain't ready to retire

Pre-Chorus

I swear I saw something catch gold right before the sun went down

Something we left behind at the edge of this one-hour town

Chorus

So hold my hand, don't look away, let the dust rise and swallow us whole

This is all I want, this is my only home — golden hour, you and me alone

Verse

Porch light flickers like it's trying to match your heartbeat

Your shirt soaked through from that old water tower we climbed up to find what was left

Socks are gone, but who needs 'em when the road still hums warm from yesterday

Every step kicks up a glitter bomb in an orange glow so wide

Pre-Chorus

I swear I saw something catch gold right before the sun went down

Something we left behind at the edge of this one-hour town

Chorus

So hold my hand, don't look away, let the dust rise and swallow us whole

This is all I want, this is my only home — golden hour, you and me alone

Bridge

Maybe it's just a feeling we chase every September

Maybe that's enough, before autumn comes for all of us again

Just one more mile, just one more song till the sun drops behind those hills

Chorus

So hold my hand, don't look away, let the dust rise and swallow us whole

This is all I want, this is my only home — golden hour, you and me alone
