Hold the Sky Tonight 2 (Version 2)

Verse

I used to count the stars and name them one by one

Now the whole sky's a canvas when I'm lost in the sound

Dust on your collar, laughter that cuts through the sun

Sweat on my neck where you leaned close with the song that had just begun

Your hand finds mine like it always does in the dark

I know exactly who we are right from the spark

Every beat is pulling me back to this exact place and time

I never knew a crowd could feel so small when we find our own line

Cement ground and you're skipping ahead, no need for a rope

Pre-Chorus

Is this the beginning or just an echo of tonight

Can I hold on tight enough to keep it lit

Maybe every moment feels exactly like the last

Tell me where the edge of forever begins at last

Chorus

Hold the sky tonight, don't let it fall

You're my constellation in a sea that's not too small

Catch your breath and watch it rise above

I'll keep our shadow moving to this endless love

Hold the sky tonight, every star

Let me learn how to hold it where you are

Don't make it fade before I see the light

Keep it right here with me tonight

Verse

You spin around in circles that leave a trail of smoke and gold

I keep your collar warm when the wind picks up cold

Your voice turns static when we lose each other's eyes

But every time you turn back, the same spark hits my surprise

Your smile cuts through the bass and finds me right where I'm hiding

Bodies move together like they're reading the same signs

Sweat on your forehead, you brush it away with a grin

And suddenly the whole room starts singing along from where we began

Pre-Chorus

Is this the beginning or just an echo of tonight

Can I hold on tight enough to keep it lit

Maybe every moment feels exactly like the last

Tell me where the edge of forever begins at last

Chorus

Hold the sky tonight, don't let it fall

You're my constellation in a sea that's not too small

Catch your breath and watch it rise above

I'll keep our shadow moving to this endless love

Hold the sky tonight, every star

Let me learn how to hold it where you are

Don't make it fade before I see the light

Keep it right here with me tonight

Bridge

We don't need names when we're standing underneath the same moon

No promise made that can't be undone

Just your hands on mine, the kick drum pulling through

And every single soul is singing only for you

So hold my hand and let's watch this light grow big

Wherever it takes us tonight I know we belong

Chorus

Hold the sky tonight, don't let it fall

You're my constellation in a sea that's not too small

Catch your breath and watch it rise above

I'll keep our shadow moving to this endless love

Hold the sky tonight, every star

Let me learn how to hold it where you are

Don't make it fade before I see the light

Keep it right here with me tonight
