Sunset 2:12 AM

Verse

You took the keys to the old sedan

Said we'd chase the sunset again

Parked by the river where the sky turns orange

Barefoot in the sand where the current's slow

The stars are coming out one by one

Twinkling diamonds scattered beneath the sun

You leaned your elbow on my shoulder blade

And I turned to face you in the fading light

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when it ends

Tell me who stays behind

Chorus

We're running for the sunset at 2:12 AM

The whole world turning gold before we're done

Every star on fire in your open eyes

We'll drive all night until we find a sky

Verse

You rolled down the window and let it in

The engine coughed like an old man's breath again

We hummed along to the radio's static

And I knew in that moment I'd never be stuck

Your hair was tangled, your smile wide open

A single firefly lit up on the back of your hand

We pulled over beneath a willow tree blooming

The whole world slowing down like it understood us then

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when it ends

Tell me who stays behind

Chorus

We're running for the sunset at 2:12 AM

The whole world turning gold before we're done

Every star on fire in your open eyes

We'll drive all night until we find a sky

Bridge

We don't have to save this

We can just let it ride

Every sunset means tomorrow's another try

Let the fire fade, I'm right here with you

Chorus

We're running for the sunset at 2:12 AM

The whole world turning gold before we're done

Every star on fire in your open eyes

We'll drive all night until we find a sky

Outro

Gold dissolving into blue

Your hand still finds mine, we hold it true

I'm chasing sunrise with you
