Come Alive in the Afterglow

Verse

Salt on our shoulders, the pier lights hum

Sixteen speakers and a setting sun

Bare feet running where the tide line ends

Counting sparks off a bonfire's bend

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising through your skin

Like the tide is pulling us back in

Say the word and we'll just let it go

Chorus

We come alive in the afterglow

Gold on the water, nowhere to go

Hearts like engines, running hot and slow

We come alive, we come alive in the afterglow

Verse

Paper lanterns strung on a wire

Someone's laughing by the dying fire

Denim jackets, sand in every seam

Chasing something bigger than a dream

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it rising through your skin

Like the tide is pulling us back in

Say the word and we'll just let it go

Chorus

We come alive in the afterglow

Gold on the water, nowhere to go

Hearts like engines, running hot and slow

We come alive, we come alive in the afterglow

Bridge

Twenty summers from tonight

I'll still taste this salt and light

Every mile we ever ran

Led us here, to who we are

Chorus

We come alive in the afterglow

Gold on the water, nowhere to go

Hearts like engines, running hot and slow

We come alive, we come alive in the afterglow
