Hold The Night 4

Verse

Bare feet on the floor now

Curtain's blowing, it's still slow

Coffee cup by the window sill

Nothing to get in our way

Knees still shaking from the light of the stage

Piano keys are humming underneath us

Birds start singing outside in a haze

Nobody is leaving yet

Pre-Chorus

So can we stay right here on the floor?

Let the sky turn gold and wait some more

Chorus

Hold the night, don't let it end

Every breath we keep, I'm never coming down again

Hold the night till morning comes around

Chest still beating out that same old sound

Verse 2

Porch swing rocking to a half-remembered song

Fog rolls in soft off the garden wall

Someone's humming low in a language we've known

Nobody's counting clock hands at all

Kettle's steaming up, sugar on your lip

Speakers hum quiet as if they're still playing the same track twice

The light creeps gold over every single step

We don't need a reason to stay

Pre-Chorus

So can we stay right here on the floor?

Let the sky turn gold and wait some more

Chorus

Hold the night, don't let it end

Every breath we keep, I'm never coming down again

Hold the night till morning comes around

Chest still beating out that same old sound

Bridge

Maybe tonight was always meant to blur

Not fade slow like a picture in an album cover

No clock hands ticking back what's been and gone

Just your hand on my wrist, the sun coming on

Chorus

Hold the night, don't let it end

Every breath we keep, I'm never coming down again

Hold the night till morning comes around

Chest still beating out that same old sound
