Lyrics
[verse]
I spent a couple winters gettin' rained on in the cold,
Kept a box of sorry stories that I never should've told.
Every love before you left me talkin' to the walls,
Learnin' how to catch myself before the fallin' ends it all.
[chorus]
But the sky turned amber, gold spilled over grey,
You walked in like weather that just blew the storm away.
I forgave the girl I used to be for all she couldn't hold,
Now the whole horizon's shinin' and it's finally turnin' gold.
[verse]
You don't fix me like a project, you just sit here while I mend,
Made a home out of the quiet, made a lover from a friend.
I used to read the endings before the story ever grew,
Now I'm reckless with the hopin' 'cause the hopin' led to you.
[chorus]
But the sky turned amber, gold spilled over grey,
You walked in like weather that just blew the storm away.
I forgave the girl I used to be for all she couldn't hold,
Now the whole horizon's shinin' and it's finally turnin' gold.
[bridge]
And it's not that the dark ever lied to me,
It just wasn't the whole of what I'd get to see.
Every starless night was a page, not the end,
Turns out gold was just waitin' round the bend.
[chorus]
But the sky turned amber, gold spilled over grey,
You walked in like weather that just blew the storm away.
I forgave the girl I used to be for all she couldn't hold,
Now the whole horizon's shinin' and it's finally turnin' gold.
