[Intro]
Then the sky stayed wide
Like it knew our plans
The whole day leaned in
And held its breath...
[Verse 1]
In June, you called my name
Bare feet on the porch boards
The peaches in the bowl
Were almost too sweet to touch
[Chorus]
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
The longest gold
We ever saw
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
You kissed me slow
And the dark moved on
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
The longest gold
We ever saw,
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
You kissed me slow
And the dark moved on...
[Verse 2]
Morning came in white
Through the cracked screen door
Your shirt on the chair
Still warm from your skin
[Chorus]
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
The longest gold
We ever saw
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
You kissed me slow
And the dark moved on
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
The longest gold
We ever saw
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
You kissed me slow
And the dark moved on...
[Bridge]
June stood still for us
Lemons in the sink
Your laugh on the steps
My heart gone bright and thin
[Chorus]
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
The longest gold
We ever saw
On the twentieth
On the twentieth
You kissed me slow
And the dark moved on
[Outro]
Then the clouds pulled back
Like a curtain line
And the whole world burned
In a softer light!
