The Afterglow

[Intro]
[Verse]
Salt air on my skin
Where do I begin?
Windows down, the engine hums
Counting down the miles it comes
Golden light across the dash
Memories in a sudden flash
[Pre-Chorus]
I can still hear the beat
Moving through my tired feet
Close my eyes and I’m right there
Hands lifted high in the air
[Chorus]
We were one under the sun
Now the weekend’s almost done
But the glow stays in my heart
Even when we’re miles apart
Keep that rhythm in your soul
Let the ocean take control
[Post-Chorus]
Hold on to the light
Everything’s alright
Oh, the afterglow
Never let it go
[Breakdown]
Soft piano starts to chime
Walking outside of time
Just a little piece of grace
I can see it on your face
[Verse]
Staccato keys begin to play
Chasing all the clouds away
I remember how you smiled
Running free and acting wild
Dusty shoes and tangled hair
Magic hanging in the air
[Pre-Chorus]
I can still hear the beat
Moving through my tired feet
Close my eyes and I’m right there
Hands lifted high in the air
[Chorus]
We were one under the sun
Now the weekend’s almost done
But the glow stays in my heart
Even when we’re miles apart
Keep that rhythm in your soul
Let the ocean take control
[Build-up]
Feel the bass roll in
Let the light begin
Yeah, we’re going home
But we’re not alone
Higher, take it higher
Like a holy fire
[Drop]
(Vocal Ad-libs)
Yeah, the afterglow!
Keep it moving now!
Don't let the feeling end!
[Bridge]
Small joys are all we need
Planting every little seed
Summer won't ever end
If you're still my friend
Higher than the rising tide
With nowhere left to hide
[Chorus]
We were one under the sun
Now the weekend’s almost done
But the glow stays in my heart
Even when we’re miles apart
Keep that rhythm in your soul
Let the ocean take control
[Post-Chorus]
Hold on to the light
Everything’s alright
Oh, the afterglow
Never let it go
[Outro]
