Verse 1
Phone rings close to midnight, and your voice hits different
Whisperin’ you’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout the way that we’ve been missin’
No plans in the morning, no reason we should wait
You say you’re on your way, and my heartbeat starts to race
Pre-Chorus
Steam from the shower, got me caught up in the mood
Memories on replay of the things we used to do
Fit laid out perfect, smell good, skin warm
Got me ready for the moment love returns in human form
Chorus
So don’t leave me tonight
When your body says stay right here
Don’t turn off that light
Let your love speak loud and clear
We ain’t gotta rush time, we ain’t gotta pretend
If this is where we start, then baby let’s not end
No don’t you leave me baby…
When you know it’s time for love
Verse 2
Door knocks, it’s you, and the words disappear
Eyes locked, lips meet, pullin’ each other near
Chemistry like lightning, familiar and brand new
Every touch is a language only we two knew
Pre-Chorus
Couch becomes a promise neither one of us planned
Hearts syncin’ up like they finally understand
That distance was a pause, not the end of our song
Been waitin’ for this night, now the moment’s comin’ on strong
Chorus
So don’t leave me tonight
When your body says stay right here
Don’t turn off that light
Let your love speak loud and clear
We ain’t gotta rush time, we ain’t gotta pretend
If this is where we start, then baby let’s not end
Don’t you leave me baby…
When you know it’s time for love
Bridge (soft, breathy, intimate)
Ain’t nothin’ left to say
You feel like home in every way
Been too long since I tasted your presence
Tonight we relearn each other’s essence
Breakdown
Hold me like you never let go
Kiss me like your heart can’t say no
If love is a language, baby we fluent
Whatever this is… tonight we’re runnin’ to it
Final Chorus
Don’t leave me tonight
Not when your soul calls mine
Don’t leave me baby
Baby, lay right here tonight
If love is a moment, then this one’s enough
Don’t leave me baby…
When we both know—it’s time for love
(Soft Piano and Sax Solo)
*Woman Speaking Warm and Soft*
I don’t to leave you tonight…can I stay? I think I need to stay baby. Mmm…can I have your love tonight?
