Streetlights Burn for Us (versie 2)

Verse

Corner store windows fogged like breath

Same block every summer since the breath

Bike chain rattling on a fire hydrant rail

Pre-Chorus

Something in the amber catching my eye

Maybe it's just sunset burning bright

I don't care what it is, I'm gonna let it rise

Chorus

Streetlights burn for us tonight

Every streetlamp turns into gold

Nobody knows how this magic got lit

Streetlights burn for us tonight

Verse 2

Porch swing creaking on a porch that's cracked

Grandma sweeping dust off yesterday's facts

Kids on the stoop doing their own freestyle rap

Same four corners but it feels like anywhere at all

Pre-Chorus

Something in the amber catching my eye

Maybe it's just sunset burning bright

I don't care what it is, I'm gonna let it rise

Chorus

Streetlights burn for us tonight

Every streetlamp turns into gold

Nobody knows how this magic got lit

Streetlights burn for us tonight

Bridge

Maybe the whole block turned at once like that

Not just some lamps turning on, but everything we had

The block don't need permission to glow

Something ancient's living through the wire and low

Let it catch every corner of my soul

Let it set everything I thought was small back whole

Chorus

Streetlights burn for us tonight

Every streetlamp turns into gold

Nobody knows how this magic got lit

Streetlights burn for us tonight
