Golden Light (Version 2)

Verse

Dust on the lens, shine in my chest

Old vinyl spinning where the shadows rest

Fingerprints soft where I've held before

Gold light crawling over the floor

Heel on the crack where it used to be

Bassline humming where only I can see

Every scratch tells a story untold

Spinning what's left as the hours grow cold

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the needle drop, drop

Can you feel the room start to fold?

Let me take you down this path of gold

Chorus

Lost in the groove where we used to go

Golden light on your face, don't let it go

Fading like film but I want it back

Hold me close 'til the sun comes up black

Verse

Cigarette smoke curling round my neck

Your laughter echoing off the darkened deck

Every frame is a memory we can't define

But I'm chasing the spark before it's left behind

You reach for the record, hands find mine

We both know this song will never be mine

So let's hold on tight 'til the crack of day

And let the static take us far away

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the needle drop, drop

Can you feel the room start to fold?

Let me take you down this path of gold

Chorus

Lost in the groove where we used to go

Golden light on your face, don't let it go

Fading like film but I want it back

Hold me close 'til the sun comes up black

Bridge

Not a photo, not a song

This is us turning the page wrong

No more prints and no more glass

Just you, just me, in this fading past

Chorus

Lost in the groove where we used to go

Golden light on your face, don't let it go

Fading like film but I want it back

Hold me close 'til the sun comes up black
