Hold Me Till It Stays（バージョン2）

Verse

Your scarf's still tied to the coat rack hook

Snowflakes falling like they know the truth

I'm holding my breath where you last stood

Every ornament is a year we missed

The tree stands quiet but it's still lit

I built this whole block of houses with your name

Painted windows red, called it 'Home' in vain

Now the doorbell rings and I pretend to be happy

Pre-Chorus

But it's only half as bright without you, honey

So tell me why we settled for so little

Wasn't meant to break up, was meant to get bigger

Chorus

Hold me till it stays

Don't let the frost freeze this way

We've got a whole year to make good on our dreams

One kiss and I'm home again

Hold me till it stays

I don't want December 17 without you in the streets

The lights are still lit, but they're not the same without you here tonight

Verse

Your favorite mug is still warm by the oven door

Six months of mail piling up on the floor

I'm keeping your old phone case in my drawer for now

Not because I need it, just 'cause it's yours somehow

The whole block is singing along to a song we knew

Every car with headlights blinking through the fog like you

Pre-Chorus

But it's only half as bright without you, honey

So tell me why we settled for so little

Wasn't meant to break up, was meant to get bigger

Chorus

Hold me till it stays

Don't let the frost freeze this way

We've got a whole year to make good on our dreams

One kiss and I'm home again

Hold me till it stays

I don't want December 17 without you in the streets

The lights are still lit, but they're not the same without you here tonight

Bridge

What if this wasn't an ending, just a pause in the code

What if every time the whole block goes dark it's only because I'm waiting for your spark to land

Maybe home is where the heart finds its own address, not just one house on Elm

So I won't pack you up or throw away the keys

I'll leave the porch light on past midnight and pretend you're still here with me

Outro

Hold me till it stays

Every string of white bulbs still burning for us tonight

One more kiss under these same old lights
