[Verse 1]
The window’s open just a little,
summer air moving through the room.
You’re lying there beneath the shadows,
quiet like the fading moon.
I don’t know what we’re becoming,
I don’t know what this feeling means.
But every time you look beside you,
I forget the space between.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe we don’t need to name it,
maybe words would make it small.
Stay a little longer,
that’s enough for now.
[Chorus]
Stay until morning,
until the blue comes through.
I don’t need forever,
I just need tonight with you.
Let the city keep on sleeping,
let the hours move too slow.
If you leave when daylight finds us,
leave me something I can hold.
[Verse 2]
Your coffee’s getting cold beside you,
mine has been untouched for hours.
We keep talking about nothing,
like nothing could belong to ours.
There’s a song playing in the kitchen,
soft enough to disappear.
You say, “I like this one,” and somehow
I only hear your voice from here.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe this is all we’re given,
maybe that’s not bad at all.
Stay a little closer,
that’s enough for now.
[Chorus]
Stay until morning,
until the blue comes through.
I don’t need forever,
I just need tonight with you.
Let the city keep on sleeping,
let the hours move too slow.
If you leave when daylight finds us,
leave me something I can hold.
[Bridge]
And if tomorrow changes everything,
don’t tell me yet.
Let me believe
we’re somewhere time forgets.
Your hand in mine,
the curtains moving slow.
Nothing has to happen.
Please don’t go.
[Final Chorus]
Stay until morning,
until the room turns gold.
I don’t need a promise,
I just need your hand to hold.
Let the sunlight reach the ceiling,
let it find us moving slow.
And if you leave when morning finds us,
kiss me once before you go.
Stay until morning.
Just until morning.
