Shine Like Smoke（版本 2）

Verse

Smoke curls up from the alleyway where we used to meet

Ain't nothing left but shadows on the street

You said you'd be back before the sun came round

But your jacket's still here hanging off that chair I found

I folded up the sweater, left it right there

Hoping somehow this would feel like an ending, not a scare

I've been waiting for what feels like forever now

Watching smoke rise into nothing after all we saw

Pre-Chorus

Maybe you just wanted out of this place

Maybe I'm still chasing your shadow in these gray streets

Whatever the truth is, I can see it now

It's rising off the sidewalk, climbing up through this town

Chorus

Shine like smoke and let me follow the light

I'll chase every ember till you come back tonight

Hold on to the spark and don't let go of what we had

Shine like smoke, shine like gold and I swear I won't be sad

Every window's watching as this whole block comes alive

And for a minute there I could have sworn your eyes were in the sky

Verse

The streetlights flicker once and then they hum back on

Same old neon glowing where our hands used to touch until dawn

I know it sounds crazy but that fire keeps burning still

A little part of you is still out here, waiting somewhere up this hill

Maybe someday you'll come walking through the smoke

Maybe someday I won't be hiding in this corner of my heart or broke

Until then I'm holding on to whatever I can find

The way these city streets smell after it rains and leaves behind a sign

Pre-Chorus

Maybe you just wanted out of this place

Maybe I'm still chasing your shadow in these gray streets

Whatever the truth is, I can see it now

It's rising off the sidewalk, climbing up through this town

Chorus

Shine like smoke and let me follow the light

I'll chase every ember till you come back tonight

Hold on to the spark and don't let go of what we had

Shine like smoke, shine like gold and I swear I won't be sad

Every window's watching as this whole block comes alive

And for a minute there I could have sworn your eyes were in the sky

Bridge

It ain't over till you walk through that door

But right now it feels like we're still more than what's gone before

You said go chasing stars if that's where my heart was beating

Well, right now mine is beating here on these city streets I'm keeping

Chorus

Shine like smoke and let me follow the light

I'll chase every ember till you come back tonight

Hold on to the spark and don't let go of what we had

Shine like smoke, shine like gold and I swear I won't be sad

Every window's watching as this whole block comes alive

And for a minute there I could have sworn your eyes were in the sky
