Verse 1
Your jacket’s on the lampshade
My dress is down the hall
We ordered something hours ago
We never ate at all
You lean against the doorway
Like trouble dressed in black
I tell you we’ve got somewhere to be
You smile and pull me back
Pre-Chorus
I used to think that fireworks
Had to light the whole damn sky
Now I know the best ones happen
With the curtains closed at night
Chorus
Loving you is no small thing
One look and the whole room tilts
You fill every space I let you in
And leave me wanting you again
Call it chemistry, call it fate
Call downstairs, tell them we’ll be late
I won’t give details, but darling, believe—
Loving you is no small thing
Verse 2
You’ve never needed flowers
To get me out of my clothes
Just that quiet little “come here”
Like you already know
You take your time on purpose
Till I lose track of the room
And somehow doing nothing
Turns into all afternoon
Pre-Chorus
I used to cross my fingers
Any time a good thing stayed
Now I know the things worth keeping
Aren’t kept by luck or fate
Chorus
Loving you is no small thing
One look and the whole room tilts
You fill every space I let you in
And leave me wanting you again
Call it chemistry, call it fate
Call downstairs, tell them we’ll be late
I won’t give details, but darling, believe—
Loving you is no small thing
Post-Chorus
Nothing little
Nothing light
Nothing halfway
Not tonight
No room between us
No need to speak
You know exactly
What I mean
Bridge
Room service—let it ring
Red light—don’t say a thing
Your hand at my waist
Bad manners, good taste
Tell them we’re late
Tell them we’re gone
Tell them whatever
Just leave the sign on
No alibi
No mystery
They get the rumor
You get me
Final Chorus
Loving you is no small thing
Every nerve knows what I mean
You fill every space I let you in
I come undone, you start again
Call it devotion, call it fate
Call downstairs, extend our stay
I won’t give details—
Well, maybe a few
Loving you is no small thing
Post-Chorus
Nothing little
Nothing light
Nothing halfway
Not tonight
Outro
They’ll hear the record
They’ll think they know
They get the chorus
You get me home.
