Aeolus 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Sirens fade from the distance now

Streetlights flicker where the day broke through

Your hand on my waistbone keeps it steady slow

Heat in the concrete where our shadows go

Sunrise bleeding into your eyes tonight

Every step you take pulls me closer to the light

The city's waking, but I'm still locked in this sound

Feet don't stop moving till we hit the ground

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when it ends

When do we leave this night behind?

Is there a name for what pulls us back here every time?

Hold my hand till the sky is wide open and bright again

Chorus

Keep walking through the morning light

Every breath we take is our own tonight

No alarm clock ringing, just your pulse in time with mine

We'll dance across this city, let it fall behind us, leave it all behind

Hold on to me like you're never letting go

Watch the world wake up slow

Verse

Barefoot on the pavement where the streetlights used to stand

Your voice is a river that I'm following through the sand

Every step I take pulls us deeper into this blue

Your hand in mine is the only thing that's true

Glass shattered, scattered across the floor tonight

We're leaving nothing behind, just the sound of our feet in flight

The sun climbs higher on your skin and I can see it rise

A brand new day but we won't say goodbye

Pre-Chorus

Tell me when it ends

When do we leave this night behind?

Is there a name for what pulls us back here every time?

Hold my hand till the sky is wide open and bright again

Chorus

Keep walking through the morning light

Every breath we take is our own tonight

No alarm clock ringing, just your pulse in time with mine

We'll dance across this city, let it fall behind us, leave it all behind

Hold on to me like you're never letting go

Watch the world wake up slow

Bridge

Maybe this is what forever starts at

Not a place or a name but how we move through it all

The only rule I know is hold your hand and keep moving till we reach the sky

And then maybe we don't let go till the stars come out again

Chorus

Keep walking through the morning light

Every breath we take is our own tonight

No alarm clock ringing, just your pulse in time with mine

We'll dance across this city, let it fall behind us, leave it all behind

Hold on to me like you're never letting go

Watch the world wake up slow
