Lights Go Soft At Six (версия 2)

Verse

Radio tower by the highway's edge

Flickers twice before it fades

Same three songs we'd hum along

Still stuck in my mind like static

Town's been holding on to summer

For the one last traffic light

Every car that slows for amber

Catches something I forgot

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I've been standing here too long

Watching colors drain from green to gray

Something inside me wants to move on

But the fading is where I stay

Chorus

Lights go soft at six, turn gold then fade

I'm still holding onto what we made

Gold becomes a memory we keep

That's all that summer's left for me

Fading like the evening sky

Is how slow I let it say goodbye

Verse 2

The diner sign still reads in cursive

Even when the numbers change

Every car that pulls into our space

Becomes a song I knew by name

I counted summers, lost the count

Counted stars before they turned

Now the amber turns to violet

Still running slow like a burning sun

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I've been standing here too long

Watching colors drain from green to gray

Something inside me wants to move on

But the fading is where I stay

Chorus

Lights go soft at six, turn gold then fade

I'm still holding onto what we made

Gold becomes a memory we keep

That's all that summer's left for me

Fading like the evening sky

Is how slow I let it say goodbye

Bridge

Maybe letting go is just another name

For carrying this light downhill

Some things don't fade, they're just rearranged

Still warm in my chest like embers still

Chorus

Lights go soft at six, turn gold then fade

I'm still holding onto what we made

Gold becomes a memory we keep

That's all that summer's left for me

Fading like the evening sky

Is how slow I let it say goodbye
