While the Kitchen Goes Quiet

Verse 1

Midnight shadows crawling slow across the plaster wall

You keep staring

I keep holding onto nothing at all

Wide cotton sleeves hiding your shaky hands

Pre-Chorus

Maybe the silence made it better

Maybe the distance kept us tight

We sat through the rain together

Waiting for the morning light

Chorus

Low lights

Dim the kitchen while the world goes quiet

Stay right here

Low lights

Dim the kitchen while the world goes quiet

You are everything I want tonight

Verse 2

Stovetop simmering and steam starts to rise

Your blue eyes

Focusing on how the blue time flies

You let your guard down and I showed the cracks I find

Pre-Chorus

Sometimes the spinning stops for a second

To let the blurry pictures clear

I would leave the crowds behind

Just to keep you right here

Chorus

Low lights

Dim the kitchen while the world goes quiet

Stay right here

Low lights

Dim the kitchen while the world goes quiet

You are everything I want tonight

Bridge

Broken pieces on the floor

Open windows

Open hearts

Open the door

Every storm we had to weather

Helped me find you

Helped me see

Helped us stay together

Chorus

Low lights

Dim the kitchen while the world goes quiet

Stay right here

Low lights

Dim the kitchen while the world goes quiet

You are everything I want tonight

Hook

Low lights

Just stay

Just stay

Just stay

Low lights
