Cold Light, Warm Hands (Version 2)

Verse 1

Concrete cold beneath my feet

Four a.m., the strobes cut down to three

Your hand finds mine in a crowded space

I feel it lift me off the floor, the ache

We move like one big engine humming slow

Smoke curls up where the bassline goes

You pull me close through the ringing air

Nobody here knows how tired we are

Pre-Chorus

Somewhere past the kick drum's low end pull

I lose my footing but I'm still standing tall

Your fingers trace a line down my spine

Everything else just fades into mine

Chorus

Cold light, warm hands, hold me right here in this glow

Move so slow, like we're floating, nothing to know

Warmth on the surface of a night so cold

We don't let go, we stay soft and bold

Verse 2

Horn section hits where the speakers stop

Your palm is open catching every drop

Six more hours till the sun decides it's time

We keep our shadows dancing in this rhyme

The crowd thins out but you don't let me go

We make a circle, small and slow

Bass drops soft like the night itself can hear

Just your heartbeat counting on my ear

Pre-Chorus

Somewhere past the kick drum's low end pull

I lose my footing but I'm still standing tall

Your fingers trace a line down my spine

Everything else just fades into mine

Chorus

Cold light, warm hands, hold me right here in this glow

Move so slow, like we're floating, nothing to know

Warmth on the surface of a night so cold

We don't let go, we stay soft and bold

Bridge

The black turns silver, one window at a time

Your grip doesn't loosen even when it should

This is the only light that I believe in

Right here with you, we find what we need in

Chorus

Cold light, warm hands, hold me right here in this glow

Move so slow, like we're floating, nothing to know

Warmth on the surface of a night so cold

We don't let go, we stay soft and bold
