Verse 1
Brass kettle humming on the silver tray
Shadow of the railcar cutting through the clay
You tilt your shades with that lazy smile
Miles of yellow stretching out in style
Pre-Chorus
Steel wheel singing to the dunes below
If this is the high, don't let it go
Can we keep this heat when the shadows grow?
Chorus
Catch the gold on the Sahara Highline
Hold this moment while the sun is mine
Wind in the window, amber on the floor
Never had a feeling hit like this before
Ride it all the way on the Sahara Highline
Verse 2
Cardamom and sugar on the tip of your tongue
Telegraph wire where the daylight hung
You trace my collar with a cedar bead
Got all the momentum that we ever need
Pre-Chorus
Steel wheel singing to the dunes below
If this is the high, don't let it go
Can we keep this heat when the shadows grow?
Chorus
Catch the gold on the Sahara Highline
Hold this moment while the sun is mine
Wind in the window, amber on the floor
Never had a feeling hit like this before
Ride it all the way on the Sahara Highline
Bridge
Stations vanish in the midday glare
Let the map run out, I don’t even care
Keep your steady hand right where it stays
Lock this feeling in a golden blaze
Chorus
Catch the gold on the Sahara Highline
Hold this moment while the sun is mine
Wind in the window, amber on the floor
Never had a feeling hit like this before
Ride it all the way on the Sahara Highline
