Bleeding Coral (Version 2)

Verse 1 – low and smooth

Rooftop view of the city turning gold

Coral reefs bleeding into amber foam

You sit close, your shoulder warm against mine

Sirens in the distance, but I don't feel them now

Pre-Chorus – lighter, more airy

Hold the rail as the sky burns red and low

One last breath before we let it go

Let your pulse match mine with every wave

We're chasing sunset on this rooftop cave

Chorus – bigger, more driving

Coral in my chest, bleeding out the night

Your hand on mine like a lantern light

Salt air in our lungs and you against me now

I won't let it go until the colors come through

Bleeding coral, bleeding slow

We'll watch this sunset from up here, alone

Verse 2 – low and smooth

Candle smoke rising off the rail above

Your eyes locked on mine as the horizon stumbles out of love

The city's alive in every heartbeat of yours

I'm holding fast to what we have before it disappears

You pull me close like the tide is coming in

Pre-Chorus – lighter, more airy

Hold the rail as the sky burns red and low

One last breath before we let it go

Let your pulse match mine with every wave

We're chasing sunset on this rooftop cave

Chorus – bigger, more driving

Coral in my chest, bleeding out the night

Your hand on mine like a lantern light

Salt air in our lungs and you against me now

I won't let it go until the colors come through

Bleeding coral, bleeding slow

We'll watch this sunset from up here, alone

Bridge – stripped-back

Just us two at the edge of gold

No more noise than what we're told

This is all I want for tonight

You and me and burning light

Chorus – bigger, more driving

Coral in my chest, bleeding out the night

Your hand on mine like a lantern light

Salt air in our lungs and you against me now

I won't let it go until the colors come through

Bleeding coral, bleeding slow

We'll watch this sunset from up here, alone

Outro – fading

Coral in my chest

Still burning

Let it be this way for just one more night
