The morning light is crawling up the walls, We blink and suddenly the year begins to fall. Footsteps echo through the days we can’t rewind, I’m chasing shadows of the moments left behind. But your laughter pulls me gently to the now, A tether in the storm that time won’t allow. So I breathe you in before the moment’s gone, Hold the quiet close before it carries on. Oh, the world keeps running, running, Faster than our hearts can hold. But here with you, I’m learning, learning, Every second’s made of gold. We gather memories like stones along the shore, The tide will take them but we’ll gather more. Your hand in mine is proof that we’re still here, Alive inside the fragile passing of the year. So let the seasons turn and let the daylight fade, We’ll dance inside the hours that we get to save. And when the night arrives to steal the sky away, We’ll light a fire bright enough to make it stay. Oh, the world keeps running, running, Faster than our hearts can hold. But here with you, I’m learning, learning, Every second’s made of gold. Ohhh, hold on to the moment, Hold on to the light we’ve found. Ohhh, hold on to the moment, Before it all comes tumbling down. We are here, we are here, While the world keeps turning. We are here, we are here, Every heartbeat burning. Ohhh, hold on to the moment, Hold on to the light we’ve found. Oh, the world keeps running, running, But we don’t have to run at all. We’ll stand here in the moment, moment, And catch the beauty as it falls.
