[Verse 1]

Can you tell me what to have and what to hold

If you never take the weight on your own?

No one tells us what is hard and what is fair

And we will deliver once we know where to fall


[Chorus]

We are made of our longest days

We are falling, but not alone

We will take the best parts of ourselves and make them gold

We are made of our smallest thoughts

We are breathing and letting go

We will take the best parts of ourselves and make them gold


[Verse 2]

Can you steady all the hands that you hold

If you never look away from the drop?

If you push yourself, then I will pull you on

And we will deliver once we know where to fall


[Chorus]

We are made of our longest days

We are falling, but not alone

We will take the best parts of ourselves and make them gold

We are made of our smallest thoughts

We are breathing and letting go

We will take the best parts of ourselves and make them gold


[Bridge]

I will wait to see if you come at all

To stop us falling out of phase

Let's see if we can keep track of losing days

You smile so wide, I can see the sides

To stop us falling out of phase

I will be with you in the fray

With those second thoughts you asked for

All you asked for


[Chorus]

We are made of our longest days

We are falling, but not alone

We will take the best parts of ourselves and make them gold

We are made of our smallest thoughts

We are breathing and letting go

We will take the best parts of ourselves and make them gold


[Outro]

And make them gold
