Verse 1 (Female , soft, low, melodic) Late light falling through the blinds City wrapped in borrowed shine Dress it in gold, let it gleam Nothing’s ever what it seems Room stays quiet, bodies slow Everybody moves like smoke Dress it in gold when it cracks No one wants the hard way back Pre Turn the headlines down Let the room breathe in If we call it love We can call it sin Chorus Dress it in gold Keep it soft Let the shine cover what it costs Dress it in gold Keep it slow If it’s breaking No one has to know Verse 2 Bodies leaning to the light Smiling like we’re doing fine Dress it in gold in the dark Hide the smoke and hide the spark Every promise polished thin Every touch alive with spin Everybody wants the dream No one wants the space between Pre Turn the sirens down Let the bass speak first If it all goes wrong We can blame the thirst Chorus Dress it in gold Keep it soft Let the shine cover what it costs Dress it in gold Keep it slow If it’s breaking No one has to know Bridge Mirror in the window glass Shows a life we almost passed We hold on to style and grace Just to keep from feeling weight When the morning pulls us near Everything turns sharp and clear But in midnight velvet light Almost wrong can look all right Final Chorus Dress it in gold Keep it soft Let the shine cover what it costs Dress it in gold Keep it slow If it’s breaking No one has to know
