Hold the Hour 4

Intro

Coffee cup still warm from the bench

Your scarf left on my shoulder

Six a.m.

Birds in the eaves

Verse 1

Streetlight flickers into gray

Three hours of saying goodbye

Your jacket slung over my chair like it's mine now

Static on the radio, the news starts low

Chorus

Hold the hour before the sun creeps through

The whole sky turning gold just thinking of you

Say it soft so nobody hears what we say

We'll remember this exact gray before daybreak

Hold the hour before the sun creeps through

Verse 2

Paper map torn on the edge of a bus stop seat

Your handwriting fading like it's running out of street

I keep the ticket stub from that one late-night drive

Circle around the coffee shop where our shadows used to hide

Chorus

Hold the hour before the sun creeps through

The whole sky turning gold just thinking of you

Say it soft so nobody hears what we say

We'll remember this exact gray before daybreak

Hold the hour before the sun creeps through

Bridge

Maybe every goodbye's a door left open wide

Maybe losing you is still walking on your side

I don't want to save this feeling like a sunset stored

I just want to hold it warm and breathe it one more time

Chorus

Hold the hour before the sun creeps through

The whole sky turning gold just thinking of you

Say it soft so nobody hears what we say

We'll remember this exact gray before daybreak

Hold the hour before the sun creeps through
