Afterglow

Verse

Suitcase open on the bed we shared

Morning light like amber in your hair

Train ticket folded in your hand

You trace the map of where I'll stand

Pre-Chorus

So how do I let go

And still believe we'll grow

Into something more than this goodbye

Chorus

This is the afterglow

Where the ending starts to shine

Every mile that pulls us far

Still keeps your hand in mine

The sun behind the station glass

Turns our sorrow into gold

This is the afterglow

Where goodbye becomes hello

Verse

Platform clock is counting down our time

Steam rises soft like breath in rhyme

You press a photograph to my chest

Says the future holds the rest

Pre-Chorus

So how do I stand tall

When your voice is all

That echoes down this empty platform line

Chorus

This is the afterglow

Where the ending starts to shine

Every mile that pulls us far

Still keeps your hand in mine

The sun behind the station glass

Turns our sorrow into gold

This is the afterglow

Where goodbye becomes hello

Bridge

Maybe distance is just a bridge of light

Stretching soft between the day and night

I'll count the stars like letters that you send

And every ending learns to bend

Chorus

This is the afterglow

Where the ending starts to shine

Every mile that pulls us far

Still keeps your hand in mine

The sun behind the station glass

Turns our sorrow into gold

This is the afterglow

Where goodbye becomes hello
