Verse
Radio hums on the kitchen shelf
Static and soul singing to itself
Blinds cut stripes on the wall in gold
Last night's heat going soft and slow
Cup of tea gone cold in my hand
Trainers still on, can barely stand
Someone's laughing on the stairs outside
Half the city on the same tide
Pre-Chorus
Dial's turning, catching the light
Chorus fading into daylight
Shuffle steady, heartbeat mild
Hold the station, hold the dial
Chorus
Afterglow on the dial
Sun coming up, we linger a while
Two-step slow where the static hides
Afterglow, afterglow on the dial
Verse
Curtain rail rattling in the breeze
Milk float humming past the trees
Neighbor's window catching the shine
Speaker's warm like it's keeping time
Foil blanket folded on the chair
Glitter dust still stuck in my hair
Snare kicks soft like it's tiptoeing round
Morning wearing last night's sound
Pre-Chorus
Dial's turning, catching the light
Chorus fading into daylight
Shuffle steady, heartbeat mild
Hold the station, hold the dial
Chorus
Afterglow on the dial
Sun coming up, we linger a while
Two-step slow where the static hides
Afterglow, afterglow on the dial
Bridge
Turn it down but don't turn it off
Let the frequency carry us soft
Nobody's rushing, nobody's leaving
Just the light and the sound we're keeping
Chorus
Afterglow on the dial
Sun coming up, we linger a while
Two-step slow where the static hides
Afterglow, afterglow on the dial
