[Intro]—
Verse 1
Sunburnt palms, your laugh catches in the smoke
Coke glass heavy, silver ice, and a slow-drawn joke
Gold hour's burning down on the four of us
Every snap feels like the one we choose
You pull my collar, say I'm the only one
Your fingers tracing the outline of the sun
Freckles map the hours we can't count
We dance in dust that's still afloat
And the static noise becomes a song
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it pulling us apart
Into two separate stars
Is it gold or is it fire
Or is it just your hand on mine
Chorus
Golden dime, catch the light
You were never mine, but I'm still in
Sunset drops and I'm gone
Golden dime, caught the sun, left alone
Verse 2
Shadows stretch across your chest
We let the record skip
Your eyes are warm like burning embers
I hold on till you pull me free
Saltwater wind pulls through my hair
Every goodbye feels like a prayer
The light's not fading yet
But I know it will, so let's get in it first
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel it pulling us apart
Into two separate stars
Is it gold or is it fire
Or is it just your hand on mine
Chorus
Golden dime, catch the light
You were never mine, but I'm still in
Sunset drops and I'm gone
Golden dime, caught the sun, left alone
Bridge
Maybe this time we stay
But maybe every sunset's just a goodbye
No gold can hold on to what it has
Not when the day decides to fly
I'll leave with you no matter what
Still counting up the days we had
Chorus
Golden dime, catch the light
You were never mine, but I'm still in
Sunset drops and I'm gone
Golden dime, caught the sun, left alone
