Holding On to Yellow (Version 2) — Velour Motion

Verse

Last taxi pulling out of sight

Your jacket slung across my shoulder tonight

Cigarette smoke in the amber light

Nobody's watching, nobody's right

Bass drops low where the speakers used to be

Empty cups on a table set for three

Streetlamp flickers orange and gold

We're not done yet, we still hold

Pre-Chorus

Something's catching, something's real

Floor is shaking but I feel

Chorus

Holding on to yellow, holding on to light

Holding on to yellow, through the afterlife

Holding on to yellow, holding on to me

Holding on to yellow where the bass used to be

Verse

Your hand finds mine in the fading crowd

Doorman's gone home, doors are unlocked and loud

Someone's playing something soft and slow

Nobody leaves when nobody knows

Grey turns pink over concrete and glass

Skyline breathing in a silver pass

Static hums through my chest where you lean

Breathe it deeper, this is all we need

Pre-Chorus

Something's catching, something's real

Floor is shaking but I feel

Chorus

Holding on to yellow, holding on to light

Holding on to yellow, through the afterlife

Holding on to yellow, holding on to me

Holding on to yellow where the bass used to be

Bridge

No more shadows left on the floor

Just your heartbeat on my open hand once more

Maybe sunrise will find us here

I'm not scared of nothing, I don't care

Chorus

Holding on to yellow, holding on to light

Holding on to yellow, through the afterlife

Holding on to yellow, holding on to me

Holding on to yellow where the bass used to be
