The Golden Hour Fold

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rain streaks the kitchen pane.
Folding the paper again.
Golden light hits the floor.
I don’t hide anymore.
Postcards from a distant town.
Setting all my burdens down.
[Verse]
A chipped mug of cold tea.
You were always there for me.
Faded stamps from the coast.
The ghost I miss the most.
Blue ink on yellowed card.
The winter hit us hard.
[Pre-Chorus]
I found your name today.
In a stack I tucked away.
The silence felt so loud.
Like a shadow in a crowd.
[Chorus]
Ten years in a dusty box.
Now I’m breaking all the locks.
Finding our way back home.
No more need to roam.
Quiet signs in the dark.
Just a tiny little spark.
[Post-Chorus]
Tiny little spark.
Lighting up the dark.
Coming home.
Coming home.
[Verse]
That joke about the old hotel.
Only we could tell it well.
Your letters are small and neat.
Like a secret on the street.
Coffee rings like halo rings.
The peace that forgiveness brings.
[Pre-Chorus]
I found your name today.
In a stack I tucked away.
The silence felt so loud.
Like a shadow in a crowd.
[Chorus]
Ten years in a dusty box.
Now I’m breaking all the locks.
Finding our way back home.
No more need to roam.
Quiet signs in the dark.
Just a tiny little spark.
[Bridge]
Time is a heavy stone.
Carried all this way alone.
But the bridge is being built.
Washing away all the guilt.
One stamp at a time.
One mountain left to climb.
[Break]
[Verse]
The sky is turning grey.
But I think I’ll stay.
Wait for the mail to come.
Listen to the city hum.
The kettle starts to sing.
I’m ready for anything.
[Chorus]
Ten years in a dusty box.
Now I’m breaking all the locks.
Finding our way back home.
No more need to roam.
Quiet signs in the dark.
Just a tiny little spark.
[Outro]
