Holding Up Till Sunset

Verse

Screen door rattling in the screen-door wind

Dust on the mantle where your picture's kept

Radio crackles soft and slow through static

Old piano keys that nobody plays anymore

Your old guitar leaning against the wall

Strings like silver waiting for someone to call

Faded photograph you left behind

Still keeps your smile at every bend of time

Pre-Chorus

Can I hold up till sunset

One more hour, one more mile

Chorus

Holding on till sunset

Gold on the windowpane

Every minute's a memory worth staying in time

Holding up till sunset

Just me and the hush of this old house

Nothing left to prove but the way it feels now

Verse

Cracked sidewalk where we used to laugh out loud

Chalk drawing that still says your name
