Copper in the Hollow Bone 2 (Version 2)

Verse 1

Fading light across the piers

Your shoulder's where I want to be

The lake turns gold like it does every year

But this time feels different somehow to me

I think of every small thing we did

Painting sunsets on the hood of your car

Drinking lemonade out past your mother's yard

Thinking the whole wide world was right here, there

Pre-Chorus

Is this it? Is this where the magic ends?

Or is this just a shadow that will bend

Chorus

Copper in the hollow bone

This feels like something I've never known

Fading light across the piers

Every small thing we did through all these years

Copper in the hollow bone

Melting fast but not going home

Your hand in mine, your eyes turned gold

I think this might be where my story's told

Verse 2

We used to walk the shoreline when the tide was out

Collecting shells and watching the sea gulls fly about

Now your hair is shorter and I'm getting older too

But something about tonight still feels brand new

I remember driving home from the arcade

Windows down, radio up, and you laughing in my face

We never really talked about what would become of us

But in that moment, nothing seemed impossible to do

Pre-Chorus

Is this it? Is this where the magic ends?

Or is this just a shadow that will bend

Chorus

Copper in the hollow bone

This feels like something I've never known

Fading light across the piers

Every small thing we did through all these years

Copper in the hollow bone

Melting fast but not going home

Your hand in mine, your eyes turned gold

I think this might be where my story's told

Bridge

It may not last forever

But for now, it feels like the whole of my life is here with you

No expectations

Just this feeling

And I don't want to let it go yet because I'm not done with you

Chorus

Copper in the hollow bone

This feels like something I've never known

Fading light across the piers

Every small thing we did through all these years

Copper in the hollow bone

Melting fast but not going home

Your hand in mine, your eyes turned gold

I think this might be where my story's told
