Golden Hour Goodbye

The shadows are long, the shadows are deep
Promises made that we're going to keep
The heat of the day is a memory now
We're wiping the stardust away from our brow
The skyscrapers look like they're made out of gold
A beautiful ending to stories we've told

The sky is a canvas of orange and red
Every word that we meant has finally been said
The stars are just waiting to take over the stage
As we're turning the very last leaf of the page

The Sun is dipping below the line
We've had our moment, we've had our time
Don't be sad that the light is dry
It's just a golden hour goodbye
Everything's glowing, everything's true
In this final reflection of me and you

The birds are all flying back to their nests
The world is preparing for a moment of rest
We walked through the neon, we danced through the rain
We found all the beauty inside of the pain
The kaleidoscope's spinning its very last hue
In a gradient wash of a deep, royal blue

The sky is a canvas of orange and red
Every word that we meant has finally been said
The stars are just waiting to take over the stage
As we're turning the very last leaf of the page

The Sun is dipping below the line
We've had our moment, we've had our time
Don't be sad that the light is dry
It's just a golden hour goodbye
Everything's glowing, everything's true
In this final reflection of me and you

It's not a darkness, it's just a new light
A peaceful surrender to the arms of the night
We'll wake up tomorrow with a brand new start
With the same rhythm beating inside of our heart

The Sun is dipping below the line
We've had our moment, we've had our time
Don't be sad that the light is dry
It's just a golden hour goodbye
Everything's glowing, everything's true
In this final reflection of me and you

It's just a goodbye
A golden hour goodbye
(The Sun is gone)
(See you at the next sunrise)
