[Verse 1]
You said
It's getting late
Coffee's cold
But your hand's warm in mine
That porch light flickers faint
But your eyes burn clearer than the sky
You laughed
Said make a wish
On the one that hasn't fallen yet
I said
Why wish at all
When I can make a promise instead
[Chorus]
I would steal you the stars from the night
Fold them up
Hide them under your eyes
Every shimmer
Every spark
Pinned like flowers on your dark hair
If the heavens ask where they are
I'll say they're safer in your arms
I would steal you the stars from the night
Just to see you shine
[Verse 2]
You trace the constellations
On my arm like they're a secret map
Say
Tell me where we're going
I say
Anywhere you wanna land
We'll outrun every sunrise
Lock the moon outside your bedroom door
Turn this tiny
Creaking house
To a whole wide universe of ours
[Chorus]
I would steal you the stars from the night
Fold them up
Hide them under your eyes
Every shimmer
Every spark
Pinned like flowers on your dark hair
If the heavens ask where they are
I'll say they're safer in your arms
I would steal you the stars from the night
Just to see you shine
[Bridge]
And if the dark comes closer (oh)
If the power lines all go quiet
I'll light your name in silver
One small sky at a time
So when you feel forgotten
Like the world turned out the lights
Look up
Love
They're all yours
Every stolen little bright
[Chorus]
I would steal you the stars from the night
Fold them up
Hide them under your eyes
Every shimmer
Every spark
Pinned like flowers on your dark hair
If the heavens ask where they are
I'll say they're safer in your arms
I would steal you the stars from the night
Just to see you shine (shine)
I would steal you the stars from the night
Till the end of time
