Late Checkout”
(Smooth, neo-soul R&B vibe — female perspective)
⸻
[Intro]
Morning creeping in through the curtains,
but I’m not ready for the world outside.
Phone’s on silent, coffee can wait—
I just want one more breath of you.
⸻
[Verse 1]
Sunlight tracing patterns on your skin,
Every line a place I’ve been.
Your heartbeat’s the only clock I trust,
No rush—just us.
Sheets still warm from the night we made,
The city can keep its masquerade.
Every sound beyond this room can fade,
I want the day to stay delayed.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t talk about checkout times,
Don’t break this quiet rhyme.
Let the world keep spinning on,
Right here’s where we both belong.
⸻
[Chorus]
Let’s call for a late checkout,
Hold me till the noon light’s gone.
Let the front desk wonder,
We’ll stay lost in our own song.
Time can wait, the world can shout—
We’re not leaving, we want a late checkout.
⸻
[Verse 2]
Your laugh is a melody under my breath,
A morning hymn I won’t forget.
Fingers tangled like we’ve got nowhere to be,
You’re the only plan I need.
Room service knocking, we don’t move,
Wrapped in this lazy afternoon.
Outside’s a storm we’ll never chase,
We’ve already found our safest place.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t talk about checkout times,
Don’t break this quiet rhyme.
Let the world keep spinning on,
Right here’s where we both belong.
⸻
[Chorus]
Let’s call for a late checkout,
Hold me till the noon light’s gone.
Let the front desk wonder,
We’ll stay lost in our own song.
Time can wait, the world can shout—
We’re not leaving, we want a late checkout.
⸻
[Bridge]
Let the city hustle, let the headlines run—
We’ve got a morning that outshines the sun.
Every minute we steal is a gift we keep,
Every heartbeat a secret we breathe.
⸻
[Breakdown – whispered]
Stay… just stay…
Don’t move, don’t move…
⸻
[Chorus – ad-libs]
Let’s call for a late checkout,
(Stay in bed, stay in bed)
Hold me till the noon light’s gone.
(Keep the curtains drawn)
Let the front desk wonder,
We’ll stay lost in our own song.
Time can wait, the world can shout—
We’re not leaving, we want a late checkout.
⸻
[Outro]
Late checkout…
Two hearts hiding from the day.
Late checkout…
Let the morning fade away.
