Hold the Hour at Sunrise (Version 2)

Verse

Speaker cools against my spine

Bassline settles soft and low

Gold line climbs the wall in stripes

Your pulse ticks under my thumb, slow

Steam curls thin from the cup you left

Floorboards hum where the crowd once stood

Pre-Chorus

We count the beats before the light

We let the room stay ours tonight

Shadows fold before they show

Nothing here is ready to go

Chorus

Hold the hour at sunrise

Hold the hour at sunrise

Skin still warm, hold the hour at sunrise

Hold the hour at sunrise

Verse

Salt dries soft along your neck

Empty groove spins on the deck

Curtains breathe the color in

Your breath slows where mine begins

Wax cools slow in a silver dish

Morning leans on the windowsill

Pre-Chorus

We count the beats before the light

We let the room stay ours tonight

Shadows fold before they show

Nothing here is ready to go

Chorus

Hold the hour at sunrise

Hold the hour at sunrise

Skin still warm, hold the hour at sunrise

Hold the hour at sunrise

Bridge

Your eyes catch amber, catch and hold

Fingers laced where the light unfolds

Floor turns liquid, gold and slow

We are the only clock we know

Seconds blur where our shadows meet

Nothing moves but the heat, the heat

Chorus

Hold the hour at sunrise

Hold the hour at sunrise

Skin still warm, hold the hour at sunrise

Hold the hour at sunrise
