Fading Into Blue (Version 2)

Verse

Pigeons outside the open window frame

Feathers rustling in the half-remembered rain

Your jacket's slung across the room's worn chair

Steam from your coffee fogging on the air

I'm tracing lines on your palm where the sun has set

Every tick of time brings us a little more debt

But I wouldn't take back this quiet, blue as skin

Not for any clock that's counting us in

Pre-Chorus

Tell me if this is just a lull or something more

Is it worth the waiting we can't ignore?

Do we let go of every hour on our hands

Or hold onto what feels like an open road, and stand?

Chorus

Fading into blue

Where the clock loses meaning too

Every moment's a choice to make

And I don't want to wake up from this place

Verse 2

Your sweater's soft against my ribs where it meets

The hum of traffic slowly crawling down the street

A single drop on the windowpane starts to roll

I'm trying to hold onto time like sand between my soul

We talk in hushed tones 'bout a future we design

But right now, every tick feels like a line that's mine

To cross or not to cross — I don't know what to do

Just this breath against yours as the day turns blue

Pre-Chorus

Tell me if this is just a lull or something more

Is it worth the waiting we can't ignore?

Do we let go of every hour on our hands

Or hold onto what feels like an open road, and stand?

Chorus

Fading into blue

Where the clock loses meaning too

Every moment's a choice to make

And I don't want to wake up from this place

Bridge

No alarm bells ringing in my head tonight

Just your voice weaving through every fading light

Maybe the only countdown we need is slow

Watching you breathe, and knowing where I go

Is somewhere here with you until the morning sky

Chorus

Fading into blue

Where the clock loses meaning too

Every moment's a choice to make

And I don't want to wake up from this place
