Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
I'm not your light, no
Lately, I've been stuck in a daydream
Dreamin' of days with no sunsets, mmm
Blue eyes, at the end of the daylight
Shadows dancin', hours passin'
Can't get you back, but I want you back, mmm
Summer treasures last forever
But memories fade to gray
We had our golden hour
Golden hour
Like diamonds on your face
Watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Golden hour
Golden hour
The best part of my day
Was watchin' the sun go down on this hour
The way that you shine, but I'm not your light
Your light no more
Let go, I gotta let go
I gotta lose you to get myself back, mmm, oh
Shadows dancin', hours passin'
Can't get you back, but I want you back, mmm
Summer treasures last forever
But memories fade to gray
We had our golden hour
Golden hour
Like diamonds on your face
Watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Golden hour
Golden hour
The best part of my day
Was watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
I'm not your light, no
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da
I'm not your light, no
Golden hour
Golden hour
Like diamonds on your face
Watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Golden hour (gold)

Like diamonds on your face (like diamonds on your face)
Watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Golden hour (golden hour)
Golden hour (golden hour)
The best part of my day
Was watchin' the sun go down on this hour
The way that you shine, but I'm not your light
Your light no more
"Golden Hour" by HRVY is a song about longing for a past relationship and the bittersweet memories associated with it. The opening lyrics, "Da da da da da da," create a dreamy and nostalgic atmosphere, setting the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is stuck in a daydream, wishing for a time when there were no sunsets and everything was perfect. The reference to "blue eyes" at the end of the daylight suggests that this person was a source of excitement and thrill for the singer.
The chorus, with its repetitive lines, emphasizes the significance of that particular time in their relationship. The golden hour symbolizes a fleeting moment of happiness and intimacy, much like diamonds shining on someone's face. The singer cherishes this time when they watched the sun go down together, as it was the best part of their day. However, there is a realization that they are no longer the light in each other's lives. To move forward, the singer understands that they have to let go, even though it means losing the other person. The lyrics express a mix of longing, acceptance, and personal growth.
Overall, "Golden Hour" captures the essence of a past relationship and the internal struggle of letting go while treasuring the memories.

I'm repeating a nonsensical sound to create a rhythmic pattern
I'm not your light, no
I no longer serve as your guiding source or inspiration
Lately, I've been stuck in a daydream
Recently, I find myself lost in vivid fantasies
Dreamin' of days with no sunsets, mmm
Imagining a time without endings or closure
Blue eyes, at the end of the daylight
Your captivating blue eyes shining in the fading daylight
Sendin' me shivers down my neck, mmm
Eliciting a thrilling sensation that runs through my body
Shadows dancin', hours passin'
As time goes by, shadows move gracefully
Can't get you back, but I want you back, mmm
I yearn to regain your presence, even though it's impossible
Summer treasures last forever
Memories from summertime remain etched in my heart indefinitely
But memories fade to gray
However, those vibrant memories gradually lose their vividness
We had our golden hour
We experienced a period of perfect happiness
Like diamonds on your face
Just like sparkling diamonds on your beautiful face
Watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Witnessing the sunset during this special time
The best part of my day
The most enjoyable moment of each day
Was watchin' the sun go down on this hour
Involved observing the sun setting during this specific time
Let go, I gotta let go
I must release my grip and move on
I gotta lose you to get myself back, mmm, oh
In order to rediscover my own identity, I need to let you go
Golden hour (gold)
That perfect moment in time (symbolized by gold)
Like diamonds on your face (like diamonds on your face)
Comparable to precious diamonds adorning your visage

Lately, I’ve been stuck in a daydream
Dreaming of days with no sunsets
Blue eyes, at the end of the daylight
Sending these shivers down my neck
(Pre-chorus)
Shadows dancing
I was passing
Can’t get you back, but I want you back
Summer treasures last forever
But memories fade, to grey
(Chorus)
We had our golden hour, golden hour
Like diamonds on your face
Like watching the sun go down
I miss our golden hour, golden hour
The best part of my day
Was watching the sun go down
I miss the…
The way that you shine
but I’m not your light
your light no more..
Let go, I gotta let go
I gotta lose you to get myself back
(Pre-chorus)
Shadows dancing
I was passing
Can’t get you back, but I want you back
Summer treasures last forever
But memories fade, to grey
(Chorus)
We had our golden hour, golden hour
Like diamonds on your face
Like watching the sun go down
I miss our golden hour, golden hour
The best part of my day
Was watching the sun go down
I miss the…
(Loads of tadums :) )
I’m not your light no
(Chorus)
We had our golden hour, golden hour
Like diamonds on your face
Like watching the sun go down
I miss our golden hour, golden hour
The best part of my day
Was watching the sun go down
I miss the…
The way that you shine
but I’m not your light
your light no more..

Although not perfectly transcribed, yours are the only lyrics I've found that (hopefully) correctly identify the lyrics as "I miss our" and "I miss the" instead of what everyone else put as "on this hour" I kept looking at musicxmatch's lyrics and kept wondering why it didn't sound right. At first I thought maybe it was hrvy's accent but I kept searching hoping to find someone else with the words I was hearing. And here you are!
Viihh💕
Thanks ❤🇧🇷
