[Intro] (clean reverb guitar, light Rhodes) (ooh... ahh... ooh...) [Verse 1] salt air, messy hair shadows getting long tracing lines in the sand where we don’t belong the radio is humming a familiar tune underneath the pale white afternoon everything is soft everything is slow nowhere else we really need to go [Pre-Chorus] (light clap) the tide is coming in to wash away the day (ooh... ahh...) just a little further just a little way [Break] (silence) [Chorus] stay for a moment in the golden light wait for the stars to lean into the night floating on the water drifting out to sea everything is exactly where it’s meant to be (ooh... drifting away...) [Verse 2] simple chords ringing on a rusted string listen to the melody the shoreline brings sun-bleached memories in a polaroid frame whispering a secret calling out your name keep it light keep it open let it breathe nothing but the blue for us to believe [Chorus] stay for a moment in the golden light wait for the stars to lean into the night floating on the water drifting out to sea everything is exactly where it’s meant to be [Bridge] (light Rhodes, soft pad) dreaming in add9 maj7 skies looking through these nostalgic eyes (ahh... ahh...) [Outro] just a little longer still drifting (ooh... ahh...) (unresolved chord)
