Hours We Let Pass

Verse 1

Ceiling fan is ticking slow

You trace a map across my palm

Half a sentence left to go

And the whole room turning calm

Rain is tapping on the glass

Counting seconds we let pass

I don't reach to check the time

Everything I need is right

Pre-Chorus

Oh-oh let the quiet hum

Oh-oh let the hours come

We don't have to name a thing

Let the night do what it brings

Chorus

Meet me where the dark is kind

Where the walls forget to talk

Meet me where the dark is kind

And we let the evening walk

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)

Verse 2

Somewhere past the window frame

Lamps are blinking down the street

You laugh soft and I do the same

Curled up warm in tangled sheets

Nothing loud and nothing new

Just the hum of me and you

If the morning wants to wait

I could stay in this state

Pre-Chorus

Oh-oh let the quiet hum

Oh-oh let the hours come

We don't have to chase a sign

We already own tonight

Chorus

Meet me where the dark is kind

Where the walls forget to talk

Meet me where the dark is kind

And we let the evening walk

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)

Bridge

Maybe mornings always rush

Maybe dawn is just too much

But the dark moves soft and slow

And I like how this goes

Oh-oh drifting low and free

There's a small sky over me

Final Chorus

Meet me where the dark is kind

Let the hours turn to you

Every heartbeat every sound

Feels like somewhere I belong

When the window turns to grey

There's a piece I mean to keep

In the quiet in the glow

Something only we would know

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)

Oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)
