The Last Ember Fades (Version 2)

Verse 1

Candle smoke curling slow on the brick

Your hand brushes mine in the dark

Shadows on your collarbone

The speakers hum like a heartbeat in my chest

I don't remember how we got here tonight

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it? Do you feel the pull of what's left

In this room, there are no clocks to keep

Only us against the fading light

So let it die slow and gentle like a song we both know

Not in my head, but out loud now

Chorus

I'll hold the last ember of this moment tight

Let it burn until the blue turns gold

We don't need tomorrow when tonight still glows

Keep your hand close to mine where the heat is low

So let it die slow and gentle like a song we both know

Not in my head, but out loud now

Verse 2

Your eyes lock on mine over the amber glass

Bassline crawling up through the soles of our feet

The room goes liquid around us, melting time and space

You lean in closer until your lips almost touch mine

I don't want to leave this feeling locked inside

Not yet, not now when we've still got all night to lose

Pre-Chorus

Do you feel it? Do you feel the pull of what's left

In this room, there are no clocks to keep

Only us against the fading light

So let it die slow and gentle like a song we both know

Not in my head, but out loud now

Chorus

I'll hold the last ember of this moment tight

Let it burn until the blue turns gold

We don't need tomorrow when tonight still glows

Keep your hand close to mine where the heat is low

So let it die slow and gentle like a song we both know

Not in my head, but out loud now

Bridge

No rush, no clock ticking behind us here

Just skin against skin and nothing else to fear

The last ember's burning low on your cheek

I'm not letting go until the blue turns weak

Chorus

I'll hold the last ember of this moment tight

Let it burn until the blue turns gold

We don't need tomorrow when tonight still glows

Keep your hand close to mine where the heat is low

So let it die slow and gentle like a song we both know

Not in my head, but out loud now
