City in Our Veins

Lyrics
Intro
Oh-oh-oh
Don't let this moment fade
Oh-oh-oh
We're wide awake
Verse 1
Midnight painting gold across your skin
Taxi lights flicker like a secret pulling us in
Your laugh spills over crowded avenues
Every passing stranger feels like part of the view
My heart is racing faster than before
Like something's waiting just beyond the door
You draw me closer with that reckless grin
And suddenly the night begins
Pre-Chorus 1
Hands up to the open sky
No looking back, no asking why
Every second magnified
We're limitless tonight
Chorus 1
This city's in our veins now
Running wild and untamed
Hearts beating so loud
We'll never be the same
We're brighter than the skyline
Burning into time
Hold on to me right now
This is our night
Oh-oh, this is our night
Oh-oh, forever bright
Drop
Verse 2
Streetlight halos in your hair
Heat rising in the summer air
Footsteps racing side by side
Every fear we carried just slips aside
Your name feels different on my tongue
Like every word between us has just begun
We're writing something no one planned
With nothing but our open hands
Pre-Chorus 2
Hands up to the open sky
No looking back, no asking why
Every second magnified
We're limitless tonight
Chorus 2
This city's in our veins now
Running wild and untamed
Hearts beating so loud
We'll never be the same
We're brighter than the skyline
Burning into time
Hold on to me right now
This is our night
Bridge — softer, intimate
If tomorrow never calls
If the daylight slowly falls
I'll remember how you smiled
Like the world was ours awhile
Stay with me inside this spark
Two bright figures in the dark
We don't need forever planned
Just your hand inside my hand
Final Chorus — extended, euphoric
This city's in our veins now
Running wild and untamed
Hearts beating so loud
We'll never be the same
We're brighter than the skyline
Written across the sky
Hold on to me right now
We were born for this night
Oh-oh, this is our night
Oh-oh, forever bright
Outro — euphoric → intimate fade
Oh-oh, this is our night
Hold it close, hold it tight
City in our veins tonight
Oh-oh, don't let go
Let the whole world shine
We're brighter than we know
(Our night, our night)
(Our night, our night)
If the morning tries to take it
We'll replay it in our minds
Every laugh, every heartbeat
Every second frozen in time
Oh-oh, this is our night
Forever in our veins
Oh-oh, this is our night
We'll never feel the same
