Four Fingers and One Spark (Version 2)

Verse

The clock on the counter read half past nine

You sat in the corner with a whiskey line

Four fingers tapping out that rhythm of mine

I ordered coffee black but my nerves were white

Every song I knew just seemed to lose its light

Then you stood up slow and put down your glass

And something in my chest just slipped right through this glass

Your hair was caught in the window steam

And I swear I saw a smile that wasn't mine

I don't remember how we started talking

Only that before you left I'd stopped looking at the clock

Pre-Chorus

Maybe this is crazy maybe it's blind

But for one night could I just leave the time behind?

Is it love or is it luck? I don't know why

But here we sit with our coffee cups and a million reasons to fly

Chorus

Four fingers and one spark igniting

We turned this whole room into a different night

Four fingers tapping out that same sweet line

Every clock in my head just stopped right behind your eyes

Verse 2

Your eyes are like headlights cutting through the dark

A radio playing the only song I'll ever mark

I don't own nothing but this worn-out seat

But with you leaning over me feels like a mansion I can keep

The whole diner's spinning round and round

Every face in this room just starts to look like someone else I've found

Pre-Chorus

Maybe this is crazy maybe it's blind

But for one night could I just leave the time behind?

Is it love or is it luck? I don't know why

But here we sit with our coffee cups and a million reasons to fly

Chorus

Four fingers and one spark igniting

We turned this whole room into a different night

Four fingers tapping out that same sweet line

Every clock in my head just stopped right behind your eyes

Bridge

I never believed in love at first sight

But for the first time I'm not arguing the fight

No schedule, no deadline

Just you leaning close to me

We don't need a clock when two hearts can agree

Chorus

Four fingers and one spark igniting

We turned this whole room into a different night

Four fingers tapping out that same sweet line

Every clock in my head just stopped right behind your eyes

Outro

Just the hum of the neon sign

Your hand still on my knee as we slide back into time

I'm keeping this night like it was the last

With you I don't need a watch to tell what time has passed
