Hold It Slow 2 (versie 2)

Verse

Rays cut through the blinds where your hand used to rest

Curtains sway against the frame that holds us best

I hold the door for a stranger in my chest

Your voice still echoes where you said goodbye to the night

Bare feet leave a shape on the tile where you stood

The city wakes up quiet like we just did

Pre-Chorus

Slow down, slow down

Let it settle

Say it once more before the gold comes in

Say it twice, let it stay with me

Chorus

Hold it slow

Hold it close

One last time, one more name

Keep it warm

Keep it real, keep it true

Forever's not what I'm asking for

Just hold it there until we're gone

Verse 2

The same sky we watched turn pink to gold

Your smile on the counter like a Polaroid

I still know your laugh inside my chest

Every single moment was worth every goodbye

Windows clean but the room remembers you

Not just yesterday, not just today

Pre-Chorus

Slow down, slow down

Let it settle

Say it once more before the gold comes in

Say it twice, let it stay with me

Chorus

Hold it slow

Hold it close

One last time, one more name

Keep it warm

Keep it real, keep it true

Forever's not what I'm asking for

Just hold it there until we're gone

Bridge

It's never over if the memory stays

I don't need a tomorrow to have today

You said goodbye but you left me here

Still holding something we both already knew

Chorus

Hold it slow

Hold it close

One last time, one more name

Keep it warm

Keep it real, keep it true

Forever's not what I'm asking for

Just hold it there until we're gone
