Sunlit Shallow (Version 3)

Verse 1

Heavy doors swing open to the dawn

Cool wind hitting where the shirt is thin

Ringing ears and gravel on the curb

Bass still humming underneath our skin

Five forty-seven on the taxi sign

Amber creeping up the power lines

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the fever breaking slow

Every shadow turning into rose

Take my fingers, do not let it go

Chorus

Out in the sunlit shallow

Wash the heavy off our skin

Out in the sunlit shallow

Let the golden tide roll in

Out in the sunlit shallow

Wash the heavy off our skin

Out in the sunlit shallow

Let the golden tide roll in

Verse 2

Shoes in hand across the cooling street

Headlights blinking in the early grey

Silver jacket draped across your back

Still swaying to the track they used to play

City sleeping while we breathe it out

Steam rising from the avenue

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the fever breaking slow

Every shadow turning into rose

Take my fingers, do not let it go

Chorus

Out in the sunlit shallow

Wash the heavy off our skin

Out in the sunlit shallow

Let the golden tide roll in

Out in the sunlit shallow

Wash the heavy off our skin

Out in the sunlit shallow

Let the golden tide roll in

Bridge

No more walls and no more strobe

Just the quiet turning bold

Hold the horizon

Let the day unfold

Breath by breath

Gold on gold

Chorus

Out in the sunlit shallow

Wash the heavy off our skin

Out in the sunlit shallow

Let the golden tide roll in

Out in the sunlit shallow

Wash the heavy off our skin

Out in the sunlit shallow

Let the golden tide roll in
