Vita Aura - Lamplight & Embers

Verse 1

City goes quiet past one

The last train's a rumor downtown

I trace the rim of my glass

Counting the hours you're not around

The lamp on the corner burns low

Casting long shadows on the street

Somewhere a saxophone breathes

Echoes a heartbeat at my feet

Chorus

Midnight undone

Leave the light on, won't you stay

Midnight undone

Drift until the morning grey

Verse 2

You left your coat on my chair

The scent lingers under the door

I hum a tune out of key

That I can't place anymore

The wallpaper's peeling with age

Holding the years like a grudge

I trace the seam with a thumb

Wondering who else will budge

Chorus

Midnight undone

Leave the light on, won't you stay

Midnight undone

Drift until the morning grey

Bridge

Maybe the rain

Maybe the road forgot your name

Mm

Wash it away

Or keep it all the same

Chorus

Midnight undone

Leave the light on, won't you stay

Midnight undone

Drift until the morning grey
