Lyric

[Verse 1]

Morning light through concrete

Pale against the grey

The grocery store still glowing

Though the night had gone away

Cars passing through puddles

Under washed-out signs

Everything looked distant

In the early winter light

[Pre-Chorus]

I kept thinking maybe

The night never really left

[Chorus]

The city still half asleep

All the windows fading

Softly into white

The city still half asleep

Every quiet shadow

Holding onto blue

[Verse 2]

Steam rising near the station

Disappearing slow

Someone drinking coffee alone

Outside the corner store

Your voice stayed in the background

Mixed into the air

Like the morning couldn’t fully

Pull it out of me yet

[Bridge]

Slowly

The clouds became silver

Slowly

The streets lost their glow

[Final Chorus]

The city still half asleep

Nothing really ended

It just changed its color

The city still half asleep

The whole world breathing

Quietly through dawn
