Verse
Last of the smoke curls up through the beam
Light finds the slats, cuts gold through the seam
Room thins out, but we don't move yet
Copper on skin where the sun and the sweat met
Shadows slide back as the speakers go quiet
Your collarbone catches the first hour's light
Nobody's leaving before we do
Floor holds the hum of the song we knew
Pre-Chorus
Is it the light or the way you stay
Do you feel it climb as the dark gives way
Chorus
Copper light falling, slow on your skin
Copper light falling, right where we've been
Hands stay low, but the heat still shows
Copper light falling, nobody goes
Verse
Chairs come up, but the bar stays dim
One lamp humming, low and thin
Your shadow leans where the counter ends
Close enough that the quiet bends
Dust in the beam like it's dancing slow
Nothing's said, but we both just know
The night let go, but the warmth still stays
Painted soft in the copper haze
Pre-Chorus
Is it the light or the way you stay
Do you feel it climb as the dark gives way
Chorus
Copper light falling, slow on your skin
Copper light falling, right where we've been
Hands stay low, but the heat still shows
Copper light falling, nobody goes
Bridge
Maybe it's not the dark we need
Maybe it's this, the light, the seam
Doors unlocked, but neither moves
Morning waits while the copper glows
Chorus
Copper light falling, slow on your skin
Copper light falling, right where we've been
Hands stay low, but the heat still shows
Copper light falling, nobody goes
