Hold My Hand Till Dawn (Version 2)

Verse

Candle flame on your collarbone

Sweat and smoke where the strobes used to be

Your fingers find mine in the dark

Nobody's counting what we used to be

Bare feet kicking dust into the air

We're not leaving till the morning's there

The room is empty, but you stay close

Every step I take, you lead it slow

Pre-Chorus

Do we chase the sun through open doors?

Or hold on tighter and watch the world roar

Do we run from what we used to be?

Or let the city turn its eyes away from me

Chorus

Hold my hand till dawn arrives

Let the morning wait outside our skin

Keep it low, keep it slow

We're not letting go

Hold my hand till dawn arrives

Nobody's leaving yet, we won't divide

Breathe this heat into a brand new sky

I don't need yesterday, I just need you tonight

Verse

Your eyes are blacker than the dark outside

I lose myself in their quiet hum

Your collarbone is warm where my hand lands

We're not leaving till the first light comes

The city's waking up through every seam

But we'll stay inside these four walls, it seems

Candle smoke is rising slow

Into the morning that we don't want to know

Pre-Chorus

Do we chase the sun through open doors?

Or hold on tighter and watch the world roar

Do we run from what we used to be?

Or let the city turn its eyes away from me

Chorus

Hold my hand till dawn arrives

Let the morning wait outside our skin

Keep it low, keep it slow

We're not letting go

Hold my hand till dawn arrives

Nobody's leaving yet, we won't divide

Breathe this heat into a brand new sky

I don't need yesterday, I just need you tonight

Bridge

Let the sun climb up through our skin

I'll follow where your eyes draw me in

We're not running from what we've been

We're finding something that's only us

Chorus

Hold my hand till dawn arrives

Let the morning wait outside our skin

Keep it low, keep it slow

We're not letting go

Hold my hand till dawn arrives

Nobody's leaving yet, we won't divide

Breathe this heat into a brand new sky

I don't need yesterday, I just need you tonight
