Before The Blue Turns Gold

Before the blue turns gold
Before the blue turns gold
Stay here in the hush
Before the morning shows

Blue is leaning on the window
Night still resting in the room
Every shadow feels softer now
Like it knows what is coming soon
Your coat waits beside the doorway
My hand lingers on the glass
And the whole night feels like breathing
Something gentle as it lasts

Do not rush
Do not wake
This last hour
Is ours to take

Before the blue turns gold
Stay with me
Hold this quiet
Tenderly
Before the blue turns gold
Soft and slow
Let the night fade
Without letting go

Tea gone cold beside the lamp light
Record still turning low
Your reflection in the half dark
Moves like something I already know
No big ending, no last promise
Just your shoulder near to mine
And the air keeps all the warmth here
At the edge of changing time

Do not speak
Do not move
This last light
Has found its groove

Before the blue turns gold
Stay with me
Hold this quiet
Tenderly
Before the blue turns gold
Soft and slow
Let the night fade
Without letting go

Before the blue turns gold
Stay with me
Hold this quiet
Tenderly
Before the blue turns gold
Soft and slow
Let the night fade
Without letting go

Before the blue turns gold
Near and low
All this night
Still softly glows
