Where the Night Turns Gold

The story
Five in the morning, hands steady on the wheel, the city half awake and blue on the glass. I told myself I left you in the smoke, but every red light knows what I don't. I don't call, I don't break, I just drive through the afterglow. Maybe missing someone is how you learn to love. I can want and let go in the same breath, and that is where the night turns gold.
Lyrics
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Five in the morning, city half awake
Blue on the glass, lipstick on the rain
I told myself I left you in the smoke
But every red light knows what I don’t
Streetlights flicker like they know my name
Same old road, but I don’t feel the same
I keep my hands steady on the wheel
Trying not to ask what I still feel
And I don’t call
I don’t break
I just move through the afterglow
If I ache
Let it ache
Some lights only bloom alone
Where the night turns gold
I still feel you in the glow
I was running from the silence
Now the silence moves me slow
I can dance with what I lost
I can want and let you go
Meet me where the night turns gold
Where the night turns gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Where the night turns gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Where the night turns gold
Heat on the window, bass in my chest
Your name in a song I never request
I wear the dark like a velvet coat
Not to hide, just to feel it close
I laugh like I’m fine, I move like I’m free
But some kind of weather still lives in me
And maybe that’s alright, maybe that’s enough
Maybe missing you taught me how to love
And I don’t need
A sign from you
I don’t need the past to stay
I can shine
In borrowed blue
Till the morning learns my name
Where the night turns gold
I still feel you in the glow
I was running from the silence
Now the silence moves me slow
I can dance with what I lost
I can want and let you go
Meet me where the night turns gold
Where the night turns gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Where the night turns gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Where the night turns gold
You were the color once
You were the spark
You were the hand I felt
Somewhere in the dark
But I found a little sun
Growing in my bones
Now I can miss you, baby
And still come home alone
Where the night turns gold
I still feel you in the glow
I was running from the silence
Now the silence moves me slow
I can dance with what I lost
I can want and let you go
Meet me where the night turns gold
Where the night turns gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Where the night turns gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Gold, gold
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Where the night turns gold
I can want and let you go
Where the night turns gold
I can want and let you go
Where the night turns gold
