Ghosts in the amber glow 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Glass turns amber on the counter top

A stranger's cigarette breath in my ear

Floor is sticky where we both stepped off

Your hand finds mine and holds it there

Four a.m. and nobody wants to leave

Bass still moving through the concrete deep

Windows steam up like a mirage in the dark

You whisper something I almost don't hear

Something that could be a prayer or just a spark

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it gathering, rising slow

Something in your chest that won't let go

Nobody's talking but nobody's leaving yet

This is where the night finally starts to forget

Chorus

Ghosts in the amber glow

Dancing on the floor with a ghost or two

Hands up high and we don't know what it means

We're chasing shadows that turn into dreams

Ghosts in the amber glow

Moving like we've been here before

Verse 2

Your hair catches gold when the strobe light lands

Fingers lace but our names never come up

Someone's shouting 'Last call' from across the room

But you pull me closer and we both agree to stay

Bottles empty on a table near us now

Cigarette smoke curls out into the gray

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel it gathering, rising slow

Something in your chest that won't let go

Nobody's talking but nobody's leaving yet

This is where the night finally starts to forget

Chorus

Ghosts in the amber glow

Dancing on the floor with a ghost or two

Hands up high and we don't know what it means

We're chasing shadows that turn into dreams

Ghosts in the amber glow

Moving like we've been here before

Bridge

Maybe you were here before this night

Maybe I'm still trying to find my own light

Every face is a ghost but somehow you shine

Hold me closer and don't let go of mine

This whole room full of strangers who could be friends

But the only one that feels like home in the end

Is right next to me, hand still on my wrist

Chorus

Ghosts in the amber glow

Dancing on the floor with a ghost or two

Hands up high and we don't know what it means

We're chasing shadows that turn into dreams

Ghosts in the amber glow

Moving like we've been here before

Outro

Last call, last song

Last look at your face

Ghosts don't fade when morning comes

Only move to a different place
