Gold in Glass 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Copper light through the window glass

Fills the cup I'm holding fast

You lean in close across the bar

Bend your head to tell me who you are

Your voice is low like a summer night

Skin catching gold in this dim light

We don't need the neon sign

This room is burning just fine

Pre-Chorus

So tell me why you're sitting here with me

Is it something I did or can't see?

Chorus

You shine in every dirty glass you fill

Gold in your hands, gold in my eyes still

I don't know how you keep the spark so bright

But tonight, I'm gonna drink this light

So tell me why you're smiling like that at me

Is it something only I can see?

Verse

Bartender's son with a story to tell

Every pour is a secret spell

You've been working these floors since before we met

Watching us all grow up in the same old set

Your smile stays steady while the crowd goes wild

Like you know a truth that nobody else can find

We don't talk about the things that break

Only how to put 'em back

Pre-Chorus

So tell me why you're sitting here with me

Is it something I did or can't see?

Chorus

You shine in every dirty glass you fill

Gold in your hands, gold in my eyes still

I don't know how you keep the spark so bright

But tonight, I'm gonna drink this light

So tell me why you're smiling like that at me

Is it something only I can see?

Bridge

Not every night turns out just right

And some days feel dark and without a fight

But in your hands I find my own small spark

A light to keep until the morning starts

You don't have to tell me what you're doing here

Just pour one more for this year

Chorus

You shine in every dirty glass you fill

Gold in your hands, gold in my eyes still

I don't know how you keep the spark so bright

But tonight, I'm gonna drink this light

So tell me why you're smiling like that at me

Is it something only I can see?
