Sunrise in gold (Version 2)

Verse 1

Sawdust on the floor and your smile in gold

I lost my shoes somewhere before we left alone

The fire died an hour back but the room still holds

Your laughter is a drum that won't let go

We traded names for stars across the ceiling high

I count them all while you're counting down till sunrise

Palm fronds outside are whispering to the floor

Every step we take feels like it's been here before

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the air turning into light?

Is this what they mean by a long, long night?

Let's chase that sun through every broken pane

Hold me close till our shadows turn gold again

Chorus

Sunrise in gold, we're dancing on the floor

Sunrise in gold, I'll follow you forevermore

Rise up with me, let it all fade away

Every sunrise starts a brand new day

Sunrise in gold, your smile is my light

I won't let go until the morning breaks into sight

Verse 2

Neon fading like a ghost that's been chased

Streetlights humming their own quiet pace

We stole the last of the night from the clock hands too

You're still counting up till we make it through

Every window full of strangers in sleep

But your eyes are awake and they're calling me

The world outside is finally starting to rise

But right now this floor feels like our private skies

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the air turning into light?

Is this what they mean by a long, long night?

Let's chase that sun through every broken pane

Hold me close till our shadows turn gold again

Chorus

Sunrise in gold, we're dancing on the floor

Sunrise in gold, I'll follow you forevermore

Rise up with me, let it all fade away

Every sunrise starts a brand new day

Sunrise in gold, your smile is my light

I won't let go until the morning breaks into sight

Bridge

Not a goodbye, just a 'see you soon

The sun's not rising on an empty room

You're still here, shining like a fire in gold

Let it burn a little longer, don't let me go

We'll dance right through the first light of day

Like this is the only time we've ever stayed

Chorus

Sunrise in gold, we're dancing on the floor

Sunrise in gold, I'll follow you forevermore

Rise up with me, let it all fade away

Every sunrise starts a brand new day

Sunrise in gold, your smile is my light

I won't let go until the morning breaks into sight
