Hold the 2 A.M.

Verse

Three in the morning, ceiling's white

Curtains flutter like they're breathing tonight

Your hair's a halo in the amber glow of the streetlight

I'm tracing your collarbone with the flat of my hand

You lean in and whisper 'let it stay

The whole room sways to whatever we need right now

Pre-Chorus

So don't look at the clock, just look me in the eyes

Tell me you're staying till morning sun rise

Say we'll hold this night like a fragile egg

Don't let the dark get the best of us yet

Chorus

Hold the 2 a.m.

Keep the light on

Hold the 2 a.m.

Let it stay

Hold the 2 a.m.

So we don't lose the way

Breathe in slow, like the room is still

Don't let the dark get the best of us yet

Hold the 2 a.m.

Keep it here

Verse

Your pulse beats in time with the humming fridge

Your fingers lace into mine, an anchor against the dark

The whole block's quiet except for the distant bass

I press my palm against your neck and keep you from drifting away

Pre-Chorus

So don't look at the clock, just look me in the eyes

Tell me you're staying till morning sun rise

Say we'll hold this night like a fragile egg

Don't let the dark get the best of us yet

Chorus

Hold the 2 a.m.

Keep the light on

Hold the 2 a.m.

Let it stay

Hold the 2 a.m.

So we don't lose the way

Breathe in slow, like the room is still

Don't let the dark get the best of us yet

Hold the 2 a.m.

Keep it here

Bridge

Maybe tonight's not the end

Maybe it's just the beginning

And every second we keep the light

Is one more reason to let go of the fear

Chorus

Hold the 2 a.m.

Keep the light on

Hold the 2 a.m.

Let it stay

Hold the 2 a.m.

So we don't lose the way

Breathe in slow, like the room is still

Don't let the dark get the best of us yet

Hold the 2 a.m.

Keep it here
