Slow Burn To Sunrise (Version 2)

Verse

Incense coil curls thin and slow

Ash keeps time on the window sill

Ice cracks soft in your paper cup

Hours stack up, we let them fill

Pre-Chorus

Is it the wax or the wick that's burning

Is it your name that I keep learning

Chorus

Slow burn to sunrise, ember low

We let it build, we let it glow

Slow burn to sunrise, patient flame

Nothing said but the same, same, same

Verse

String lights dim as the hour turns

Your sleeve brushes, then pulls away

Candle drips on the wooden ledge

We keep the edge till the break of day

Pre-Chorus

Is it the wax or the wick that's burning

Is it your name that I keep learning

Chorus

Slow burn to sunrise, ember low

We let it build, we let it glow

Slow burn to sunrise, patient flame

Nothing said but the same, same, same

Bridge

Windows turn from black to blue

Room empties out, it's just us two

No rush left in the amber light

The burn was worth the whole slow night

Chorus

Slow burn to sunrise, ember low

We let it build, we let it glow

Slow burn to sunrise, patient flame

Nothing said but the same, same, same

Outro

Ash goes quiet, light comes through

Slow burn to sunrise, me and you
