Lyrics
The street was still warm when the sky went black Fireworks opened behind your flat You said don’t look back like you meant it But your hand stayed caught in my jacket Open windows breathing out the day Ice in your cup turning thin and grey Smoke in the hall from the neighbour’s yard Your name in my mouth like a second heart We laughed like the ending was running late Like the clocks forgot they had to change Every rooftop had a little light on Every goodbye had a reason to stay I know the morning’s coming I know the spark runs thin But the air still knows your body And I’m still standing in it There’s still heat left in the street Still smoke above the houses Still your name stuck on repeat Like the night forgot to drown it There’s still light caught in the wire Still gold around the concrete If this is how the season leaves Let it leave a little louder Heat left in the street Heat left in the street Still your name stuck on repeat Heat left in the street Headlights cut through the corner store Salt on your skin from the day before You got quiet in the passenger seat Drawing moons where the glass turned warm I tried to say what I never say right You smiled like don’t ruin tonight So I swallowed every almost truth And watched the whole city burn blue I know the morning’s coming I know the spark runs thin But the dark still looks like shelter When you’re standing in it There’s still heat left in the street Still smoke above the houses Still your name stuck on repeat Like the night forgot to drown it There’s still light caught in the wire Still gold around the concrete If this is how the season leaves Let it leave a little louder Maybe we were only weather Maybe we were only sparks Maybe some nights last forever Even when they fall apart You said remember this feeling I said it’s already in me The fireworks faded over everything But I could still feel the heat There’s still heat left in the street Still smoke above the houses Still your name stuck on repeat Like the night forgot to drown it There’s still light caught in the wire Still gold around the concrete If this is how the season leaves Let it leave a little louder Heat left in the street Heat left in the street The night let go of everything But I could still feel the heat
