Afterglow Signal (versie 2)

Verse

Boardwalk lights and a busted speaker

Salt on my skin, engine running weaker

Nineteen and reckless, curfew's a myth

Sparklers dying in the parking lift

Cherry slush melting down your wrist

Neon sign says the night still exists

Windows down, we're chasing the heat

Every streetlight's a burning beat

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the summer holding

Can you feel it start to fold in

This is midnight, this is golden

Don't you dare let this stop unfolding

Chorus

We're the afterglow signal, burning past dark

Two hearts flashing like a runaway spark

Nineteen forever in a backseat spin

This is the summer we let the light win

We're the afterglow signal, loud and alive

Chasing the heat till the stars arrive

We're the afterglow signal tonight

Verse

Ferris wheel spinning, ticket stub torn

Fireflies rising where the field is worn

Boombox crackling, static and gold

Nobody's tired, nobody's old

Gravel road humming under bare feet

Radio static turns into a beat

Popsicle drips down onto the sand

Your fingers still tangled up in my hand

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the summer holding

Can you feel it start to fold in

This is midnight, this is golden

Don't you dare let this stop unfolding

Chorus

We're the afterglow signal, burning past dark

Two hearts flashing like a runaway spark

Nineteen forever in a backseat spin

This is the summer we let the light win

We're the afterglow signal, loud and alive

Chasing the heat till the stars arrive

We're the afterglow signal tonight

Bridge

Someday we'll be older, chasing other skies

But right now the whole world's just headlights and fireflies

So hold up your phone light, let it burn like a flare

We were here, we were here, we were here

Chorus

We're the afterglow signal, burning past dark

Two hearts flashing like a runaway spark

Nineteen forever in a backseat spin

This is the summer we let the light win

We're the afterglow signal, loud and alive

Chasing the heat till the stars arrive

We're the afterglow signal tonight
