Hold My Shadow 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Gold dust hanging low against the floor

You move in a slow circle, watching me more

Every beat lands soft between your ear

You let it wash up and disappear

Palm print on my wrist in the dim blue light

I think we were running through this life tonight

Nowhere but here, nowhere to be

Just two shadows learning to breathe

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that pull coming like a tide

Do you trust me like I want you inside

Where is your shadow, where am I going

Who are the hands in these wings we're borrowing

Chorus

Hold my shadow, hold my hand

Let the dark turn into sand

Wherever you go, that's where I'm moving too

Hold my shadow, through and through

No need for names when your light is mine

We're the same echo, on the same line

Hold my shadow, every night

Verse

Streetlamp turns to amber, painting us gold

Your shoulder against mine like we were born to hold

Every step behind yours feels like a map

I lose you in the crowd and still catch your clap

Specks of light dance slow across the floor

I find you in a sea I never walked before

You don't ask me what's holding you down

You just lift my arm and let us turn around

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel that pull coming like a tide

Do you trust me like I want you inside

Where is your shadow, where am I going

Who are the hands in these wings we're borrowing

Chorus

Hold my shadow, hold my hand

Let the dark turn into sand

Wherever you go, that's where I'm moving too

Hold my shadow, through and through

No need for names when your light is mine

We're the same echo, on the same line

Hold my shadow, every night

Bridge

What happens to these hands when daylight comes

Do we still find our way back home in the hum

Or do we turn to two separate streams

Either way I know that's where I'll be, leaning into you like a flame

Chorus

Hold my shadow, hold my hand

Let the dark turn into sand

Wherever you go, that's where I'm moving too

Hold my shadow, through and through

No need for names when your light is mine

We're the same echo, on the same line

Hold my shadow, every night
