Verse
Dust drifts thin in the amber beam
Your palm turns up beneath the seam
Candle low, the wax runs clear
Fingers trace the heat right here
Speaker hums a fading round
Your ring taps soft against the ground
Pre-Chorus
We cup the light before it fades
We hold the warmth the morning made
Nothing moves but what we choose
We keep the gold we're bound to lose
Chorus
Gold between our hands
Gold between our hands
Light won't leave, gold between our hands
Gold between our hands
Verse
Sweat cools slow along your wrist
Smoke unwinds where our fingers twist
Floor still ticking, soft and slow
Your breath falls where the embers glow
Curtain lifts a shade of rose
Morning creeps but no one goes
Pre-Chorus
We cup the light before it fades
We hold the warmth the morning made
Nothing moves but what we choose
We keep the gold we're bound to lose
Chorus
Gold between our hands
Gold between our hands
Light won't leave, gold between our hands
Gold between our hands
Bridge
Bass falls back to just our palms
Skin remembers what it holds
Even gold runs through our hands
Still we keep it, still we hold
Chorus
Gold between our hands
Gold between our hands
Light won't leave, gold between our hands
Gold between our hands
