Static in the Sky (Version 2)

Verse

Six a.m., the room smells like smoke

Your jacket's slung over my shoulder, open wide for the door

I keep counting the hours we spent here

The window's foggy but I can still see your face, far away from me

Pre-Chorus

So how do you say goodbye to a city that was ours?

Hold on tight or let it go like a ghost in the snow?

Chorus

Static in the sky turns to silver light

We're letting go but we're gonna be alright

Every heartbeat in this empty room

Is still humming with the sound of you

Sun's coming up, turning grey into gold

And I know somehow, somewhere, this is not the end, just a brand new road

Verse

Taxi window, your hand on my knee

The city's waking like it knows we're leaving together

I keep thinking that maybe this is just a test of what we mean to each other

That the goodbyes don't have to break us, they can be the key that opens up instead

Pre-Chorus

So how do you say goodbye to a city that was ours?

Hold on tight or let it go like a ghost in the snow?

Chorus

Static in the sky turns to silver light

We're letting go but we're gonna be alright

Every heartbeat in this empty room

Is still humming with the sound of you

Sun's coming up, turning grey into gold

And I know somehow, somewhere, this is not the end, just a brand new road

Bridge

Maybe goodbyes are just doors that open wide

Maybe the ache means it was worth our time

I'm holding on tight but letting go too

This city's burning like a promise breaking through

Chorus

Static in the sky turns to silver light

We're letting go but we're gonna be alright

Every heartbeat in this empty room

Is still humming with the sound of you

Sun's coming up, turning grey into gold

And I know somehow, somewhere, this is not the end, just a brand new road
